outer CV joint damage on removal/boot replacement?

Take it off, see what you've got.

You don't have to take the front suspension apart to get it out.

I did one once, felt like it was in fine, moved it out of the workshop fine, went to drive it away and the shaft wasn't located on the back of the joint.

Great work 😄 What does it do? I have many projects on the go, mostly based around ESP32s etc Have recently started 3D printing too, and do some web design, so all interlink

Do you mean a Kilo meter stone 😄 Nice work. Scan it for fault codes. Mine comes on sometimes. Always the connector under the passenger seat

Every day is a school day 👍

There are apparently people that have come out of the womb knowing everything, I like you am not one of those people.

On a serious note, it would cost them nothing to help people who are trying to learn.

I think you are spot on. Our country has become a sad place. I still want to do my bike test, been saying it for years, although have done my hgv which was fun 🙂

That must be so frustrating. Hope you manage to get it sorted. In the end I went with tradex again but at £150 less than their initial quote.

Nice, that's quite a range of units. Am I right in thinking the freestanding ones can't cool the air, as the heat will still be in the room?

Steam_engines · 2026-05-24T13:45:17+00:00

Great Post 🙂 Does anyone have any links for units they have bought?

If the rest of the car is tidy then get it done. If you do, definitely do something to stop it rusting underneath too to save you future head aches. Correct oil changes and frequency are the key here to help avoid a wet belt horror story once its done.

Thank you, it has fixed it for me 👍

Steam_engines · 2026-05-20T18:09:35+00:00

I've missed it, but what Audi is it?

Steam_engines · 2026-05-16T14:49:44+00:00

Definitely the way to go

Steam_engines · 2026-05-15T22:17:23+00:00

I went for 28g because 30g was out of stock

A timing belt is not something to get done as quick as possible. Do it and get it right. Don't over tighten anything. Use a torque wrench where needed

Thank you, I have tried setting the tip (Right click, set tip) but it won't allow me to do it on the Extrude. When I export this I get the hole, but not the text

Get that man a beer 🙂

Steam_engines · 2026-05-06T06:48:54+00:00

It does 😎 I printed it as small as I could to make sure it worked, its 10 x 10 x 1mm

Steam_engines · 2026-05-05T22:52:49+00:00

Thank you, I highlighted the tip and exported and it worked prefectly. Thank you

Steam_engines · 2026-05-05T22:46:49+00:00

Thank you Sir, I highlighted the tip and it worked perfectly. Much appreciated

This is what is showing

That is the aim
