106 1.5D CV Joint Replacment - xaxben - 05-02-2017
Picked up a 106 1.5D the other day for £40 (with some MOT left. Sweet!), anyway having fixed the the major reason it was for sale cheap (non-runner, until I turned up... air leak in fuel filter), now got to start dealing with the other issues and get it up together.
The Left/NS CV Joint is failing, clattering if pull away hard while turning right, or if I'm doing my best to keep the speed up through a right hand bend or roundabout. Quite irritating.
Now, a quick browse through ebay suggests that I can't buy just a CV joint (appears there's the odd listing, but upwards of £60), but since the car was £40 I'm reluctant to go and spend £20-£30 on a driveshaft, plus gearbox oil and if I'm doing it properly a new driveshaft seal. Does anyone know if it is possible to get just an outer CV joint for the LH/NS shaft?
Cheers,
Ben.

indeed they are not replaceable, you must buy a whole shaft or gamble that cleaning and regreasing with a new boot fixes it.
I wouldn't bother replacing the gear oil or the seal on such a cheap car, unless the oil is contaminated/low and the seal is damaged.
jack the side up high enough and you wont need to drain it either.
