Drive shaft joints — replacement of protective covers (Renault Espace I)

1. Replacement of covers is the only work in the area of drive shaft repair that is recommended to be carried out separately. Wear or damage to the shaft or joints requires replacement of the entire shaft assembly.

2. Rubber boots are included in the corresponding repair kit together with special grease. The procedure for replacing the boot is quite a complicated job and therefore it is recommended to entrust it to a specialist. It is possible that dirt has gotten into the joint, and this is the cause of premature wear.

3. Before replacing the cover, you need to determine the type of hinge installed. Also remember that the shafts on earlier models in some cases differ from later models.
