i have been having a knocking noise coming from the passenger side, had a look today and saw there were blobs of grease over the wishbone and the surrounding areas so im guessing il need a new driveshaft? im not really clued up on the driveshaft stuff so was wondering if a corsa b one would poss fit?
also, im quite low on coilovers so would there be a chance of the new one having the same problem quite soon?
cheers
Replace the outer cv joint,

not at all mate, their is a guide in the articles section, the hardest part is cleaning the grease off to find the circlip
Not really, just replace the shaft if you like but I'd just change the cv joint, it'll be covered in the Haynes manual
