Fitment Notes
- Always match vehicle details before ordering. Confirm exact fitment using VIN, engine code, or chassis number if multiple variants exist.
- This listing covers both front left and front right — select the correct side. On SA right-hand-drive vehicles: front left = nearside (passenger), front right = offside (driver).
Important: With CV joints and driveshafts, a VIN check can still return multiple possible variants within the same model range. First confirm whether you need a left or right driveshaft. Then match the removed unit by overall length, outer spline count, inner spline count, ABS ring tooth count, and joint type where applicable. The only reliable way to confirm the correct part is to physically inspect and measure the old unit and match these specifications before ordering.
Returns Notice: CV joints, driveshafts, and boots that are greasy or incomplete are not returnable.
Installation / Use / Maintenance Tips
- Compare the new driveshaft to the removed unit — match overall length, spline counts, ABS ring (if fitted), and joint types before fitting.
- Inspect related CV boots, hub bearings, transmission seals, and suspension components before fitting the new driveshaft.
- Use a new hub nut and circlip where specified by the workshop procedure — do not reuse one-time-use fasteners.
- Follow the Renault workshop procedure for correct installation sequence and torque specifications.
- After installation, check for correct operation, abnormal noise, and confirm CV boot clamps are secure.
