Thanks for that, will be on a ramp, so is the nut and bolts on the manifold end 8mm ? Need to know for sure as I got to go buy a set of long reach sockets

Bump

Hi What size sockets do I need to replace middle exhaust section, manifold end, and what's easy way of getting to them Xsara pucasso 1.6 petrol reg 2000 Thanks

No noise at all now Paul, drives like a rolls Royce lol can do speed humps now with out it sounds like it's hoping to collapse

All done and euro part fitted perfect Thanks

I email euro car and asked if it's correct pert for mine, if they say yes then I will go for that one, I'm just worried in case I get one like the last one, too short, I noticed it's says on euro site it says list price £302 and actual price £48 so it does seem good value

So any shaft with 32739Z will fit, seen a few but says 2.0l diesel so bit confusing lol

Wow thank you Paul for all the info, at least I can get the correct part now, is all the ones on the eBay link for my car then ?

Anyone know what drive shafts will fit mine, I'm not sure if mines 8v or 16v there nothing in log book that I can see, I've seen a few on original ones on eBay But want to make sure, seen a 1.6 16v one from a 2006 facelift will that fit ?

Checked new one against old one and it's shorter, so annoyed as I gave my reg to them to check, waiting to hear back from them :-(

Need help please, fitted new driveshaft but it's not engaging the gears ?

The ball bearing come out, so I took it as being naff now, new one comes today

Well the leg is on, but I pulled the drive shaft out from the wheel, so ordered a new one, hope there easy to fit and I don't brake nothing else

That's great news thanks

Is it possible to change the whole thing without a spring clamp as I don't have any and no one I know has any and I'm doing it on Sunday

Cheers for that How do the drop link arms come off ?

Been looking online for a diagram of the front leg or a manual but nothing about

It sounds like mine could be the same then, my car always passes it's mot with no advisories, but I'm thinking this year may change :-(

Many thanks, when I do hit speed hump to fast, I get a thud as though it's hitting something, and if I wiggle the stering like when F1 warm tyres up, I get knocking, but as mentioned hitting any bumps cracks etc it's rattle as though the spring is loose and jumping around, but on looking everything is solid, it's really annoying not seeing what's causing it, but strut is leaking so it's worth changing it, it came from a citroen spares place and was listed for my year model and CC. This all started when I had new springs fitted last year, one snapped so I had both replaced and since then one sides been giving me trouble

I don't have any spring clamps, I thought it would just come off and swap it over,

Hi Thanks for getting back, after getting it checked, the strut is leaking and when I put a bit of wood under it to test it, it's not returning, so it's had it, I've just got another strut with spring, so I will fit that and see if it still makes the clonking noise, if it still has a noise I will change anti roll bar drop link, I take it that's the bit on the strut, I strut I just got has a bit of it still on it, I've never replaced a strut is it just the 4 bolts at top and the one at the bottom ? Thank you

Hello I have xsara Picasso 1.6 16v petrol. The drivers side suspension is making a horrible clunking noise when I hit and humps or uneven roads and pot holes, I think it was pot holes that caused it, I've looked under the car as it sounds like something loose, but I not found whats causing this, and it's getting worse, it's fine on a smooth road and if there's a speed hump it sounds like do thing is going to brake off, it's driving me mad with worry, has anyone else had this ?
