Re-packing CV Boot Grease

[Dave..]

Hopefully it's just the clip that's come off, if so I'll be having a bash at sorting it tonight. Is it ok to repack it with the conventional grease that I have in my garage, or do I need to use speacialist Renault branded, extortionatly priced, all singing all dancing grease?

You can pack it with what ever you like princess x x

ooo kieran!


...I had a look, saw grease all over the hub side of the boot, all up the wheel, and no split in the rubber.

Theres still some grease in there, be reet.

Both my clips failed on both sides int he same week, i just replaced them with jublee clips, didnt bother re-greasing, Bloody shitty job.

Well, the side that was "substantially repaired" is jubilee clipped in place.

The side in question is cable tied. Now there's grease inbetween the joint though, it doesn't look like it'll be holding anything back.
