driveshaft boot
« on: 07 April 2013, 20:39 »
noticed the driveshaft boot on the passenger side has split



can that boot be replaced easily or does the shaft have to come apart?


miffed off spent a fortune on the car recently and was 100% issue free for a week or so  :grin:

You could do it in situ but it will be a lot easier taking the drive shaft out.

Buy genuine ones, cheap ones are crap.

Easier to take the shaft off and replace it.
