Its come down to the last 3 jobs on my £130 Micra to get it though its MOT, I've fixed everything else. The last three jobs are all things I'm not looking forward to:
Change a CV joint
Replace the waterpump gasket
Repair the reversing light sender in the gearbox
They are all nasty jobs. Can't believe the waterpump gasket, I bought the expensive Halfords high performance anti freeze to treat old thing. Flushed the cooling system and filled it up 50/50 with this and water. About £10 worth. How did it respond? It leaked it all out over my driveway via the water pump. Really annoyed me that did!
Anyone changed a CV joint? I'm waiting for my Haynes manual to arrive and I'm not sure where to start? I'm going down the scrap yard possibly later today to pull one off a car over there. Theres a thread on here, but it seems to be more focussed on changing a boot, rather than the whole CV joint.
