Hi everyone,

I need a new driver's side rear axle for my 2011 XF Supercharged. I've been attempting to find one on Ebay, but I've been told that there is a difference between the standard axle and the supercharged axle. Is this accurate? Or can I just buy any of the axles for sale in the right year range?

Thanks,

Nate

 

The XFR has an e-diff (electronically controlled LSD) which is very different to the basic diff and which I suspect takes a different axle/drive shaft.
I *think* the XF SC also has the e-diff but I'm not 100% sure of that.

 

Thanks for your reply. I'll keep searching for an axle that lists as being for the supercharged version.

I've got the same issue. Went to replace the hub bearings due to loud vibration, and the guys at the shop say the whole spindle/knuckle/axle needs to be replaced, as they can't them apart. I have a 2012 XF, and was looking to replace the entire passenger rear assembly with one from a 2011 XFR. It looks to be in pretty decent shape. Does anyone possibly have a definitive answer for this, whether the XFR assemblies are in fact different from the XF? I appreciate the previous response, but would really help to know definitively if possible. Thanks folks.
