Help with finding stub axle part numbers

[Tyrrell]

Hello hope someone could help.
I've got a 2015 ex AA t5.1 4 motion that the front oil seals on the transfer case are leaking so i was going to change them. But as the van still has the original drive shafts fitted and its now done 205k i thought i might as well change the drive shaft, stub axle and oil seals all at the same time. As when you jack up each front corner and rotate the wheel, if you imagine it was a clock face they turn from 12 to 2. none of the play is outboard its all between drive shaft and transfer case/gears.
The drive shafts both have part numbers on the 7E0 407 272 AK & 7E0 407 271R. You obviously cant see the stub axle until its removed to measure it. i really wanted to have all the parts ready so it could just be swapped over.
So far i have contacted TPS who have explained they no longer deal with the public only trade.
contacted vw heritage as they seem to have taken over supplying part for vw models that are no longer in production. But on there system there was only the LH stub axle and no RH listed. lh part was a meyle 100 498 0250
contacted meyle and they have said the same only the Lh is on there system.
i did ask both if that meant i needed a second lh part to used on the rh side but they didnt think so.
i did find some exploded drawings on LLL parts but couldn't seem to find the Rh stub axle on there either.

Does anyone have somewhere else they source part numbers from? Ideally i would like to use Meyle parts to replace them with how much genuine drive shafts cost

The part number for the right hand inner CV joint is 7E0498104B ~£335 retail from a dealer. There doesn't seem to be an aftermarket version available for the 4 wheel drive variant.

p.s VW Heritage are an aftermarket parts supplier, they are able to source items throughout europe but if VW haven't marked a part as no longer serviced you can order via a dealer or TPS (with a trade account).

Thankyou for the response. From what had read up on, I was expecting to change the complete drive shaft assembly on both sides, so inner and outer cv joints. But its the inner stub axle part numbers is what I'm struggling with finding. Looks like the pic below.

I didn't realise that vw would still supply parts for models that are now out of production. I'll try to contact them

Sorry, I think I may have misunderstood what you were looking for. These parts aren't out of production as they're used right through to the T6.1.

Is this what you're after? Assume manual gearbox? This is what VW call a stub shaft. The only other reference is the inner CV joint as per my previous post.

Just cross referenced the meyle part number and it resolves to the left inner cv joint, so my first post is correct for the right hand side inner.

To be honest it could be I've got it wrong. Yes its a manual, where its a 2015 t5.1 I guess some of the parts could have been early t6 parts. So the research i did, presumed the drive shaft was going to connect to the inner stub axle like in my post above. That seems to be prone to wear on T5's and T5.1s eventually resulting in a loss of drive.
I'm starting to wonder if its worth taking the driveshafts off to see what condition the splines are in. The reason i started to look into this was the oil leak on both sides that's coming from the transfer case oil seals on the front.
Not sure if its possible to change just the oil seal on each side with out removing the stub shaft?

I managed to get some part numbers using the vin number the right hand side is 0A5 409 343 B OEN and the Left hand side is 09N 498 292 A OEN which looks like the shaft you have posted the picture of above
you can only get left hand side as a genuine part, meyle do offer a replacement for the right.
I haven't been able to find any info how to change that style of shaft. has anyone changed one before?

Here you are. It's not very complicated, but you need to remove the transfer case and you'll need a press.

Thankyou for you help thats really useful. are they part of a service manual?
