General Drive shafts 4x4 Cross 2015 1.3 diesel

[Eccles]

My wife has this car and to be fair she loves it, but every time i try and get something sorted it seems the only options are new parts from fiat italy - a clutch - £650!!! Now i need to get the front driveshafts replaced and Fiat are quoting £600 for each side - Madness! I cannot find the whole assemblies in UK?? Am i missing something? Does anyone have a detailed parts log / schematic I can look up the part numbers of what i want? the internet seems to be empty for once! it seems the carchanged radically in 2014? and pre this time you can get parts but I am struggling for the 2015 - a parts list would be great? anyone got one please? cheers steve

What is wrong with the front drive shafts?
Is it just outer CV joints or more?
There are Motor trade parts stockists that have companies they deal with who recondition drive shafts.
Obviously Genuine is best, but if this keeps it on the road?
