Cv joints xsara

nurkov · Unread post by **nurkov** » 23 Mar 2007, 23:48

I'm trying to buy cv joints for my wive's xsara and can't find them almost anywhere. Found them recently in one store but they are expensive.
model is xsara I 1.4i with ABS. Does anyone know if 1.6L has got the same cv joints? I know that diesels and bigger engines have got different ones.
Maybe whole driveshafts somewhere??

The 1.4 driveshaft is not the same as for 1.6, despite the same basic type engine (TU3/5) and g/b (MA) and ABS.
And of course the 1.8 (XU7) is also diferent.

I'd think its pretty difficult to source the CV joint as stand alone part, because recent cars have driveshafts where all parts are precisely balanced to each other on each complete axle.

It will be muxh easier (and prob. cheaper) sourcing a complete axle, either s/h from scrapper, recon from aftermarket suppliers, or new from oem suppliers or your dealer.
If you choose that route you will probably find that the axle you need fits a range of models. The supplier will know from his selection tables.
Here is the PRnet Xsara(I) 1.4 listing :

yeah I'm thinking about scrapyard but those driveshafts could br very worn.
With mine I got 2 problems, one has not got abs ring other is very noisy when turning.
Dealer wants fortune for those.
Checked with pr.net and I need those:
3272.5W LEFT DRV-SHAFT EXCHG

- INJECTION TU3JP AND GEARBOX MA AND STD GEARBOX DIFF AND SALOON AND WHEEL-SIDE JOINT AC2000I AND AXLE-SIDE JOINT GI2000I AND WITH ABS BRAKES

It's around 300 GBP if I give them my old ones or about 700 if don't which is a lot.

Ask around before you place an order !
- surf your national web info for suppliers.

You should search on driveaxles, for Xsara & ZX. Dont search using the Cit part no's as these are dedicated for Cit genuine parts.

1.4i, 1.5D, 1.6i With ABS 29 Teeth
That means that 1.6i driveshaft is the same???
and what on earth is 1.5D xsara with engine from ax?
GSF don't have them, there is a lot of cv joints for bigger engines like 1.8 1.9 or 2.0 and 1.6 sometimes or 1.4 but without abs. And I don't need whole driveshafts I'd love to buy new cv joints but can't get them.

yep if you look at Anders original reply,in the lists it shows a TUD5(1.5) diesel XSARA,there must also be a gaitor from another psa model which will be the same,maybe ZX OR pug 306

This was the first time I'd heard of it too, but according to PR Net there was a Xsara mkI 1.5D TUD available for just a year during 99/2000. I don't think we ever got them in the UK though.

I've had a citroens all my life and read a lot about them and had AX with 1.4D and 1.5D but I've never ever heard about that engine in bigger cars like BX, ZX, Xsara or peugeots bigger then 106.
Anyway I've bought two driveshafts on ebay 25 pound each, scrapyards want about 50 for each one. I'm pleased with it and hope all will be ok.
