CV Joints / Cap / Rotor

[ats at longcoeur.com (Patrick Bureau)]

You could I guess, but its simple to pop the 30mm axle nut, and remove the 6
bolts holding it to the tranny and tehen work on it, though I am a lazy
persone with quite a few of "guaranteed" dv axles, I just grab the bad axle,
remove the other one, carry it over to my local autozone or o'reilly
(depending where my life time guarantee is at (I have 4) and get fresh
remans and slap them back on... 40 mins off 40 mins on...

Hey All,

I posted a question about 2 weeks ago about replacing CV Joints, and I dont
think we ever agreed on a response.  On the 16v models, is it possible to
remove and replace the CV Joint wihtout having to take off the drive axle?
My left CV Joint is gone and needs desperate replacement, and as I was
replacing my rotors and pads this weekend it definetley looked as if this
was possible, but I didn't have the time to experiment. Also, is replacing
the CV joint a farily easy job, or is it one best left to professionals?

Also, I need to buy the BOSCH distributor cap and rotor for my 16v, but I
cant find the Bosch parts anywhere around where I live ... anyone know a
place that stocks them??

THanks,

Carlos Alves
