2006 C70: Drive Shaft Driving Me Nuts
 
1 Attachment(s)
OK, soooo

Been lot's of road noise lately and my mobile mechanic had sent me a link to buy a replacement for him to come and fit for me.

https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/315176394868

Unfortunately, as you can see from the picture the bearing is about an inch out of place / different from the original and won't fit into the housing.

Any ideas (or links to a part that will fit) would be appreciated!

Thanks in advance!

there are probably variation dependant on which gear box is fitted and whether its auto or manual try cross referencing part no s on a site like scandix or ask some one with vida to read your car and access the parts manual to find the correct part no to give to the supplier of new shafts pay by credit card so purchases protected agains any problems or faults..:regular_smile:

Cheers Simmy - I'm returning the part, so as soon as I find one that fits I'll grab one!

I shall also have a look on Scandix and see if that sheds some light!

It's a D5 2.4, 2006 model - not sure if it being so early changes things.

I went through all this recently when I was told my CV boot was leaking. I thought I'd get a whole driveshaft just to make life easy, that was until I discovered the endless amount of variants! There were three different types from the US, a similar amount in the UK. In the end I was relieved to find I didn't need one, but I feel your frustration!
