Hello Benedict... Sorry Only just spotted your question we used a rotary emery wheel that goes in an electric drill to clean up the inside of the bearing block.... as the block is alloy you need a gentle touch don't get taking too much metal away.... the other way is to heat it up with a blow lamp the alloy expands and you can press it together in a vice wear gloves don't burn yer paws! we the alloy starts to smoke slightly that's hot enough......Cheers....Trevor
Did this fix the woble problems for you ? also have a qasqai with this issue and replaced both drive axle and it dint fix the problem if i checked the baljoints and strutbearing seam to be oke
Hello Leon ...... yes it did sort it..... but lots of things can cause the problem...such as buckled wheels, bulged/out of shape tyres...track rod ends the wishbones/and their joints are prone to wear on these cars...... cheers...Trevor
Did you have, or could it be causing, a tic-tic-tic noise when cold and under load (accelerating, uphill etc) ? Both my boots were ripped and I have the typical knocking when turning and accelerating, but I also have cold start ticking that I cannot seem to find the source for. I cannot hear any noise stationary, so I'm figuring if it could be related to the drive shafts.... (I will be replacing the drive shafts on both sides in a near future)

Nice job, was it hard inserting the axel with the engine mount on it? I’m finding it doesn’t want to go in, did you use a mallet on the end?
