2004 Other Renault Models Front Wheel Drive Automatic 46000 miles

i have a renault megane coupe 2L , the drivers side seems to have a rattling ,creeking sound when i turn corners, i was thinking cv joint and turns out it was the oil had dried up i cant just buy a part i have to replace the whole driveshaft and been quoted £260,, im wanting to know if its dangerous to drive and how long would i get out of it the way it is till i get the muny together to fix it .also my steering seems hard could it be due to low power steering fluid? ,thanks

it is impossible to state how long it will last without seeing/hearing the vehicle ... have it repaired as soon as you can .. it is much cheaper nowadays to replace the whole shaft because of the labour times involved in braking down the parts .. also check the power steering fluid level is good
