1.6 T A16LET Replacing Drive Shaft Asking Experiences

No this is ridiculous. So your local garage cannot source a pattern/similar part? Do you know the part number for driveshaft?

Try also getting one for a Biturbo. Not available.

The inner joint is the same so there is an option to get a full second hand driveshaft from astra and use inner joint.

How do you know that it also is the same with my car? Because you have a Biturbo and I don’t.

The part number for the inner joint is listed as fitting both cars. The outer joint is different or not depending what site you use. Chassis numbers probably come into play. Have a look here, theres many others:

So if I understand correct: only the inner shaft will fit and need to be dissasemled and replaced on my original drive shaft?

Its an option? The 'joint' remains intact. The shaft splines into joint.
