Car parts and drivetrain components for Seat MII.
The most common signs are severe vibrations throughout the car under acceleration, or persistent noises that remain after replacing a CV joint. If the shaft is bent or the inner joints are completely worn out, replacing the complete drive shaft is the best solution.

The clicking noise is almost always caused by a worn outer CV joint. When wear creates play around the steel balls inside the joint, this characteristic sound appears under load while cornering.
It requires specific tools and mechanical experience, but the Seat MII has a relatively accessible design. However, we recommend following a workshop manual or consulting a professional garage if you are unsure.
