kerrly 0 Posted March 23, 2014 (edited) Basically has anyone on here bought one of these?: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/VW-PASSAT-2-8-VR6-2-9-VR6-1991-1997-DRIVESHAFT-CV-JOINT-RIGHT-OFF-SIDE-DRIVER-/140785351424?pt=UK_CarsParts_Vehicles_CarParts_SM&hash=item20c775fb00 http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/VW-CORRADO-2-9-VR6-1991-1995-DRIVESHAFT-CV-JOINT-LEFT-NEAR-SIDE-PASSENGER-/130720527868?pt=UK_CarsParts_Vehicles_CarParts_SM&hash=item1e6f8cf5fc Clearly they are cheap, i only need a outter cv joint on my nearside and was probably just going to buy a £25 Q drive thing from ECP so i wasn't going to buy OEM either way.

p0l1wrath 10 Posted March 24, 2014 Ah very interested on peoples opinions on these as well, will be getting both if people say they are good! Is the passat one a direct fit? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jim Bowen 1 Posted March 24, 2014 Was a couple of threads on here where people have fitted a cheap outer cv joint and the end has sheared off. Might be worth a search. I know they aren't cheap from VW though. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mrginge 0 Posted March 26, 2014 I was mostly worried if it snapped in half on the gearbox side it might cause some damage. As for the passat link I'm guessing it fits as it lists 2.9 but not sure. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
eugopnosaj 0 Posted March 26, 2014 Don't fit cheap! I bought a cheap CV from ECP and it sheered at the joint so avoid them at all costs... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
