Can never understand why folk on here ask for part numbers. I mean, youve still got to go into the dealers anyway and it can all be done just as quick with a quote of the reg plate plus theres always a risk someone quotes the wrong part number, as above :lolup:

more likely to get the right part number on here than in any dealership near us!

Aye depending on which 'tuning team' you support

Never had a prob with my Renault dealers where parts are concerned and over 6 years iv practically bought a new car worth of parts

 

[ben_p]

the dealers are crap. i dont think ive ever ordered a part and its been right!

as far as i'm aware ben the inner cv boots are pressed into the carriers and cant be replaced, unless i'm incorrect? which you have to prove me wrong because i bodged a universal one on until i find out probably get a new driveshaft and polish the arms up

as far as i'm aware ben the inner cv boots are pressed into the carriers and cant be replaced, unless i'm incorrect? which you have to prove me wrong because i bodged a universal one on until i find out probably get a new driveshaft and polish the arms up

did the universal one work?

yea its still on now, are we talking drivers side? i'm guessing theirs a carrier on each side any way?

theirs no way to dissassemble the carrier, so we put a cut down universal boot in boiling water (7.99 halfords jobie) greased up the carrier, turned the boot inside out then work the boot over the carrier, very suprised it didnt rip tbh.

if you had the outer cv joint off aswell it would have made it alot easier to work with, we put 2 clips on each end and ragged them tight to ensure their was no way they'd slip off

 

[ben_p]

its the driver one yea!

i need to wip it off tonight!

 

[ben_p]

what clips did you use? the tie type you need a tool for iirc.

i think a jubilee would cause a wobble?

no the thin metal strip ones you get in the kit, just dont be a fool like me and try them because once you push them in they dont come back out unlike a cable tie!

if you go to halfords ask for the universal one with 5000 in the serial code, you cut 2 steps of the boot off and the one that is now top will fit snuggly over the carrier, use 2 sets of pliers to pull the fastner tight as you can only holds grease in ffs! lol see how long it lasts anyways
