[showie]

hi all I'm looking for some help on finding an avensis verso driveshaft with cv attached model clm20r-armdy year 2003 2.0 diesel.it has developed a clicking on full lock and my mechanic says that its the cv joint starting to go and I will need to replace the driveshaft with the cv as they have to be cut off or something ..thing is I cant find a driveshaft for the car and any parts shops I contacted says nothing comes up with my reg so asking hear to see if anyone has gotten one done before or knows where to point me ..thanks in advance

Buy one from a breaker. The parts generally come from low mileage vehicles involved in accidents etc. You'll save a fortune on dealer prices.

No need for a complete shaft if only 1 joint is noisy, your local dealer can offer you 3 solutions

1. A Complete shaft

2. Inner joint 1/2 shaft

3. Outer joint 1/2 shaft

For either shafts

A motor factor may be able to get a complete shaft but i doubt they will supply the individual joints fortunately the drive shafts rarely give issues but as the demand is low, the car pretty rare and the part not sharing with other models means if a factor can get a shaft its unlikely to be in stock.
