- Опубліковано 9 кві 2022
- So Vinnies MOT is due, after a look around we found a hole in the left hand outer CV boot.
This is what we did to fix it.
I got the replacement from EuroCarParts.

I have to warn you that I have no formal automotive training, and have just learned by breaking stuff. If you can learn anything from my mistakes then great, but you do so at your own risk! - Авто та транспорт
Really appreciate your videos on Vinnie! I find them really useful for working on my own Vivaro. Thanks!!
Thanks 👍
This was extremely helpful. Changed front brake discs/pads on my trafic today only to find a leaking CV boot. The large metal ring had snapped.
Have just ordered a CV boot kit to fit next week.
Thanks again, you've gained a subscriber 👌🏼
Thanks, good luck sorting it out🤞.
Cheers Larcs 👍
Had a problem with a knocking on driver's side for some time now, changed all sorts. Today I changed the Anti roll bar Bush's and using your video. Problem solved! Also driver's alot better. Thanks for the Vids 👍
Thanks, no problems 😃. Great you got it sorted out 👌.
Cheers Larcs 👍
Did you need to drain gearbox oil mate?
Another great video keep up the good work make’s life easy for a novice like me many thanks.
Thanks, no problems 😃. Glad they're of some help.
Cheers Larcs 👍

Cheers Larcs 👍
Cheers Larcs !
No problems 👍
Thank you mr L.
It's a pleasure Fred 👌👍
Lol you said you were going to tighten the main hub nut up with the wheel on then forgot
Yeah, sorry. I did do it though 👍.
Hi great video ,you make it look easy. Im needing to replace both sides on mine . When tapping of the cv joint do you need to replace the ring that holds it in place ?. Also when tapping back on you mention lining up. Is that just the grooves you can see need to line up ? Thanks again
Thanks, unless it's damaged I don't normally replace the ring. Yes, just lining up the grooves (splines)👍.
Thanks I'm going to attemt this now thanks to your video 😊
@@markroberts4526 . Good luck sorting it out 🤞.
Hi you mention about reversing sensors on another video do you have a installation video of that ? Thanks
Yes, it's a job I really want to get done. Some idiot keeps buying new vehicles for me to fix though 🙄🤣. I did my mum's mini a little while ago, but yes I need to pull my finger out and do it.
Cheers Larcs 👍
Hiya
It’s the boot on the hear box side the same ? Mine leaks and wondering if I order two the same will be ok ? Thank you
I would imagine that both the outer boots are the same but I don't know for sure. Your auto parts store should set you right.
Hello mate just question about fitting drive shaft on the vivaro do you have to drain the gearbox -to-do the driver side drive shaft
Sorry, I don't know for sure? It would be a good idea to drain/renew the oil IMHO. Unless you have the special dip stick for the oil level, you have to put the correct amount in. The fill plug isn't the level hole like in a 'normal' gearbox.
Cheers Larcs 👍
Thank u ... I will drain it anyway even though it was renewed last month by myself but now the driver's side shaft gone . NeverEnding story!!!
@@tonythorrington3740 So true👌. You can always reuse/top up the oil if it's good and clean?
Hoping it's the same for the driver side on a 2008 2.0.
I would imagine they are very similar 🤞.
