Special tool needed, but which one?

[crunch81]

Good day!

I want to replace my drive shaft.
Car is a 2010 1.6 Turbo insignia.
I have a socket but it can’t be fitted, there is no room, the inner cv joint is in front of it.

Can somebody tell me which special tool is needed to open the bolts on the transmission side to remove the drive shaft?

Thanks very much!!

It just pulls out of transmission, no bolts to undo

Hi Exclusiv,

Allright thanks,

But is it correct that there are four bolts behind the inner cv joint, that it gives the suggestion that they need to be unscrewed? Just to be sure that we have the same chocolate M32 6 manual transmission.

And...will there be oil or not when I take it off?
The stealers told me there will be oil bit if you say it will pull right out, then it is possible that there will be no oil.

Thanks for the info!

Are you on about the short shaft, passenger side,, and yes, there will be oil, get ready with a rag, to bung the hole, till you're ready to insert new one

Yes the short shaft, drivers side with me.
Allright thanks!

Take care when inserting new shaft,, the drives haft oil seals are not very strong, and easily damaged,, and they are a bit of a pig to replace
