The most common signs are pronounced vibrations throughout the car under acceleration or a persistent clicking noise when turning. If you notice that the vibrations stop as soon as you lift off the accelerator, this is a typical indication that an inner CV joint or the entire drive shaft is worn.

A worn outer CV joint usually produces a rhythmic clicking noise when driving on full steering lock, such as when manoeuvring into a parking space. The noise quickens with the vehicle's speed and is typically caused by dirt entering the joint through a split CV boot.

On this model, it is very common for the ABS ring on the outer CV joint to crack due to corrosion. This leads to inaccurate sensor readings, which triggers the warning light. Replacing just the ABS ring itself is often sufficient, avoiding the need to change the entire CV joint.

Yes, there can be differences in both overall length and the spline tooth count depending on the gearbox type. It is therefore vital to select your car's exact make, model and engine variant when searching to ensure you receive a shaft that fits your specific transmission.

Yes, if you catch a split boot early before the joint has started making noises, it is often sufficient to clean the joint thoroughly, repack it with fresh grease and fit a replacement CV boot. This preventative measure can save you a substantial repair bill.
