Finding A New Cv Joint

[Raccoon 0]

Hey guy, recently I've found out that my passenger side CV joint on my CTI is pretty much knackered. I'm not keen on replacing it with a used part but I'm having trouble finding a new one.

 

If you could point me in the right direction that would be brilliant. Also is the CV joint on a CTI any different to the ones found on a GTI or any other 205 for that matter?

CTi driveshaft should be the same as a 1.6 GTi and all diesel models.

 

I don't think that the CV's are easily replaceable on them though, unlike say 1.9 GTi models.

As Ant said, the CV's are not replaceable on base model and 1.6 driveshafts, they're a closed tripod design not a 6 ball cv.

Ah right, so I would need to replace the whole driveshaft?

[Anthony 1,002]

Yes.

Thanks for your help. It's much appreciated.

 

Oh, also where is the best place to find a new one?
