    I had a damaged cv boot on my passenger side so decided to replace the drive shaft instead of just the boot.
    Did the work and had no problems with doing it but not when I turn right I sometimes get what sounds like a pop? And I just noticed when I am coasting around 5/10mph there's a murdering sound too?
    Any ideas what this could be????

    Correct shaft for the bearing? Tapered or non tapered?

    Brand new drive shaft from Euro car parts who went through the options to give me the correct one.

    It's also meant to say juddering sound not murdering. This seems to be coming from the drivers side brake though

    What year is your car? Model 1.1 I suppose? Did you tighten the hub nut to 250 nm?
