New problem yet again, when I turn right there is a clicking noise from front offside wheel, and there is thick greese all splattered all over the inside of both front wheels, does this mean the cv joint rubbers have gone and cv joints need replacing.
Its starting to look like am rebuilding this car bit by bit. When will it end lol

Sounds like you need a driveshaft mate.
Only a 20 minute fix with the right tools.

At least your getting it all sorted thou! Better than letting everything pile up, nice one mate cracking result might be worth filling joint with cv grease first though, I have some you may have smile

If the gator has failed then thats pointless as the grease will just escape again frown

To change the rubber you'd have to remove the CV, so if its clicking, just swap the CV - there is probably nothing wrong with the actual shaft wink

I would've just bought a new rubber gaiter if it's split? The clicking is dry bearings in the CV joint.
