Hi ya, recently broght a cheap renault espace on the understanding that it needed a bit of tlc, I can hear a clicking when turning left or right but the noise is coming from the right hand side whilst driving slowly, ive been told its the c.V joint, if its an easy-ish job then I will give it a go myself rather than go to any expensive dealer, but as im not sure exactly how hard or easy it is im hoping that one of you guys/gals could help me out please, what a great forum this is to, had real difficulty finding a workshop manual for the espace and resorted to the internet, which im now glad I did as I found this forum, any help will be really appreciated, many thanks.

If you have some mechanical understanding and some tools then you should be able to do this.

Consists of jacking up vehicle and removing wheel. Removing wheel bear assembly from strut assembly and then pushing the cv shaft though the bearing. Then prying it off of the transmission housing
