Frequently Asked Questions about Drivetrain Parts for Chrysler PT Cruiser
How do I know if my Chrysler PT Cruiser needs a new drive shaft?
The most common signs are strong vibrations under acceleration or a persistent noise from the front suspension. If the vibrations stop when you release the throttle, the cause is often a worn inner CV joint or an imbalance in the drive shaft.
Do all CV joints fit all Chrysler PT Cruiser models?
No, variations exist depending on whether the car has a manual or automatic gearbox, as well as which engine is fitted. Always check the spline count (teeth) and filter by your make, model and engine to find the right part.
Why is the ABS warning light illuminated on my PT Cruiser?
A very common fault on this model is a cracked ABS ring on the drive shaft caused by corrosion. This disrupts the signal to the sensor and triggers a warning. We supply separate ABS rings that can often be fitted without replacing the entire joint.
What is the difference between an inner and an outer CV joint?
The outer CV joint sits next to the wheel hub and allows steering movement, whilst the inner joint sits by the gearbox and accommodates suspension travel. The outer joint typically wears faster due to the greater angles experienced when turning.
Can I replace just the CV boot if it is split?
Yes, if you catch the damage early before dirt enters and grease is lost, replacing the CV boot can save the joint. If noises have already developed, however, replacing the complete CV joint will be necessary.
