what's this driveshaft orange donut thingy for??

This broke on my corrado yesterday. It's moving freely through the shaft :?

 

what's it supposed to be? a counterweight? is it very expensive? :? :? :?

 

 

thanks

I wasn't aware it was orange but if it's what I'm thinking of, it should just be a vibration damper. If so, most people just remove them if they're loose and causing a problem.

Is it worth fitting a new one? I have to replace a cv boot anyway...

if your driveshaft is rusty and/or the paint damaged a new one won't stick in place properly anyway, they have to be fitted at a very specific position but it doesn't seem to cause a problem if you run without one, so as above, just ditch it :)

I'll fit a new one if it's not expensive.

Sounds like it'd be an arse to get it in place....mine made no difference without it anyway! Good luck though, I know you have the power :luvlove: :norty: :norty:
