Hi all.

I'm replacing the outer CV on my Dad's 1.6 Active Sport in the morning and I was wondering, as I've not worked on Fiats before, if you had any tips?

My main question mark is what suspension parts to undo so I can release either the driveshaft from the CV or the whole thing from the hub.

Judging by ePER it is very similar to my Rover but just wanna be sure ;)

Cheers
Dan

Looks fairly conventional.

I'd expect it to be the usual fun when pushing in the driveshaft through the hub:)
 
Well it ended up being put into the local garage.

The joint had started to break up and it was nigh on impossible to get hold of one quick enough.

Still at least I know it's gonna be looked after and the job done properly.
 
Keeping my own thread alive.....

It appears even the garage are having trouble getting hold of the joint.

Don't suppose anyone has any ideas why this might be?

Even my local Fiat dealers (all 3 of them!!) would have to put it in back order!
