not surprised you've had to do this with all the performance tuning youve carried out on the engine

I think it’s done well to last this long considering the sheer amount of torque going through it on a regular basis

@@Mr330d could be so many things but this knackered cv joint caused vibrations. If you can feel excessive side to side movement in the shaft then that could well be your issue. Other than that, imbalanced wheels, misshapen tyres, buckled wheels all usually give similar symptoms.

Top tip! When putting anything in any hole a bit of spit on end helps.
@StupidBlokeStupidVideos9 ай бұрын
Yes, or smear with a bit of Vaseline or any general purpose grease. Helps to stop it causing any damage as to force it in.

On my driver’s side shaft, I have slight play in and out but not side to side, will that be the cv joint? When I turn the car on a roundabout I hear a knocking noise.

I have not had a used drive shaft replaced in any of my cars. If I had a problem I replace the cv joint or the cv boot. There are companies that manufacture cv joints such as FAG, SKF, LOBRO, SPIDAN etc.

Yes, I replaced the outer CV on this car a few years ago. It was a pain in the dick on this car to be honest. The inner cv was the issue this time though. This is the video of the outer CV kzbin.info/www/bejne/e6S7coGIaNR2jpYsi=SZnZIb-WXUG4IOZN

It is normal for these cars to have a bad droning sound past 30mph.. right? The sound directly corresponds to wheel speed, think its coming from the rear too. Also makes a silly spring/ball joint rolling noise when pulling off of sloped surfaces, i.e. driveway. Had new tyres on it in September I think the noise reduced but might of been placebo as it's definately back, if not worse! Love it to bits though, very fun wagon to drive about.. haha! good video

Could be a rear wheel bearing. They do that when the wire failing, but they aren’t quiet cars to start with.

So if your shaft needs replacing the balls need to come off too ,, a tad extreme. but if thats how it has to be. I was always told that its the width thats important not the length , now your telling me its the other way round ,,, life is seldom simple.
@StupidBlokeStupidVideos9 ай бұрын
The girth of the shaft is important for handling the torque, the length is important to reach its destination. I’m told that neither matter, until she’s mad at me, then I’m told that both in fact matter, and I possess neither 😂
