Question about part numbers and compatibility?

[Rog]

Would a driveshaft from an A4 B9 2.0 fit an A4 B9 1.4, assuming they have the same part number 8W0407271E

In other words and in general, can you forget about other factors when considering compatibility as long as the part number is identical?

Components are usually supplied/sold by part number and for sure the same part/ can, will, and usually is fitted to several AUDI models and even across the VW/AUDI/SKODA/SEAT, etc range.

Hope this helps...
