Parts for your 1999 Nissan Primera-Driveshafts

1999 Nissan Primera driveshafts

Driveshafts are absolutely fitted to the 1999 Nissan Primera (P11/P11-144). Technical references including the Nissan Primera P11 Factory Service Manual (Front Axle/Final Drive sections), the Nissan FAST parts catalogue, and the Haynes Nissan Primera 1990–2002 manual all show left and right front driveshaft assemblies with constant velocity (CV) joints, and on many variants an intermediate shaft with a support bearing on the right-hand side to help curb torque steer.

On this front‑wheel‑drive Primera, the driveshafts transfer engine torque from the transaxle to the front wheels while allowing for suspension movement and steering angle. Each shaft uses inner and outer CV joints so the wheels can move up and down and turn left/right without vibration. Where fitted, the right‑hand intermediate shaft helps equalise shaft lengths for smoother take‑off and better steering feel.

As part of routine servicing, driveshafts don’t have a fixed replacement interval
