CV joints - possible cause of judder?
Re having a look at the CV joints.
Every now and then (not very often) the clutch will give a violent judder which is so extreme it nearly stops the engine. It only happens if the wheels are on a tight lock and the car is pulling away on a slight upward incline. I mentioned it in this thread - posts 6, 7, 12, 13, 15, 17 refer to it (post 15 is a second car with the same issue). That's the main reason for taking the driveshafts off - to see if they're connected to this judder in any way. De-rusting & painting them was of secondary importance.

However if you wish to replace the outer joints, or the boots, or simply the clips, the people to speak to are J&R trading in Birmingham For example, a outer CV joint HERE I know your car is a V6, so simply enter your registration number on their site and you will get the correct part. Brian P.S. the old clips can't be reused |

I've heard of a few popping out Ian, but I have never replaced a circlip and never had any problems. Once the drive shaft is fully home I give it a tug and if it doesn't pop out box the rest up. . Last edited by Mike Noc; 9th July 2020 at 21:16.. |

To refit them I use a pair of tack removing pliers. Line the ends up and close the pliers. They then hook together again. However, I have used plastic cable ties successfully in the past also.--- |

What makes you say the driveshafts aren't the cause of the violent judder? Surely it has to be either the clutch or the driveshafts/CV joints. I can't think what else there is that would cause a judder that's so violent it can (and has) stopped the engine dead in a flash. Last edited by Blink; 10th July 2020 at 10:13.. |
