gen7nnb Posted December 14, 2012 Report Share Posted December 14, 2012 Thought the problem sounded familiar, although this happened to me about 9 years ago. Remember it being a fairly cheap fix but then GM/Vauxhall parts are cheap anyway! Hope you get it sorted mate! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Parafuso Posted December 14, 2012 Author Report Share Posted December 14, 2012 will do, but they appear to be in short supply at the mo will have to wait for TCB to send one. Toyota quoted me £400+ , pretty much for the whole drive shaft. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

razer Posted December 14, 2012 Report Share Posted December 14, 2012 I got a prob with mine, I changed rear wheel bearing but still geta wheel bearing noise....sounds as if it comes from all 4 wheels, however as I explained to mechanic what I was hearing, he suggested the drive shaft bearing may be faulty which also gives off a small vibration thru steering wheel, foot pedals and gear knob, so I will get it checked. May or may not be relevant to your post but thought I would throw it in anyway, as it may be worth checking it too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ghoulie Posted December 15, 2012 Report Share Posted December 15, 2012 Had a similar problem on an old car, was a ball joint that had practicly fallen out Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Parafuso Posted December 15, 2012 Author Report Share Posted December 15, 2012 Well had a look at the CV joint to see if there was anything major, this what I found: Did find 1 piece of chewed up metal, but not the whole thing that broke off. Loads of scaring on the star shaped piece Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
