Whether you run a petrol or diesel variant, our car parts are built to endure the strains of everyday driving. We understand how essential it is to get the correct part straight away, which is why our catalogue covers the various mechanical revisions introduced across the model’s production run.

What does the outer CV joint do on a Citroen Evasion?

On a front-wheel-drive car like the Citroen Evasion, the outer constant velocity joint’s primary job is to transfer torque from the gearbox and drive shaft to the road wheels, all while allowing them to steer and travel with the suspension. It is an intricate, heavy-duty component that must cope with substantial articulation angles and constant movement. Without a sound outer CV joint, power delivery would become jerky or cut out completely, making it one of the most vital items in your drivetrain. Mounted right at the wheel hub, it is protected by a rubber CV boot that retains lubricating grease and seals out dirt and moisture.

Common signs of wear

There are several distinct warning signs that an outer CV joint on your Citroen Evasion is reaching the end of its life. The most typical symptom is a rhythmic clicking or knocking noise when negotiating tight turns at low speeds. If the sound disappears as soon as you straighten up, it is a classic sign of a worn outer joint. You might also notice steering wheel vibrations under acceleration, or spot grease splattered over the inside of the wheel, signalling that the drive shaft boot has split. Leaving these issues unaddressed can eventually lead to complete joint failure, leaving your vehicle stranded.

How to choose the correct outer CV joint

Selecting the right outer CV joint for a Citroen Evasion requires attention to detail, as spline counts can differ on both the inner and outer ends of the joint, alongside variations between models with or without ABS. To make sure you order the correct spare parts, simply choose your car's make, model and engine from our catalogue. This immediately narrows down the components engineered for your specific vehicle. It is also wise to check whether your current CV joint features an integrated ABS ring, which is essential for ensuring your vehicle's safety systems operate seamlessly after the repair.
