Want this question answered?
you can't replace it you have to buy whole new driveshaft assy. about 650.00 from dealer. or go to junkyard,or driveshaft shop to see if they can cut off yoke replace bearing and re-weld which is what i did. 2004 is the only year for this.
if the play is in driveshaft, replace u joints. if the play is actually in the diff, remove driveshaft and tighten pinion bearing.
Many carrier bearing assemblies must be pressed off and on the shaft. Sometimes it's best to take the entire driveshaft off the vehicle and have a driveline specialist shop replace all of the u-joints and the carrier bearing at the same time. For that matter, they don't usually charge much to remove and replace the driveshaft so it's often not worth the trouble to do it yourself.
the same way you would replace any hub assembly, take the wheel off, take off any bolts that connect the hub to the driveshaft and then replace it
It's pressed on the shaft. You'll need to pull the driveshaft,separate the center spline then you need to find a press to remove the old bearing and press on the new one.
remove rear drive shaft from vehicle.remove large nut ( pinion nut) at front of diff, which is generally hidden when driveshaft is in place.with a bearing puller remove pinion bearing, replace with new one. install new pinion seal. reinstall pinion cover and pinion nut. tighten to specified torgue.reinstall driveshaft check diff oil for proper amount
Replace Fuse Replace socket Replace element
That'll be the carrier bearing. This happened with my Audi A6 quattro. On my model, it was more cost effective to replace the entire driveshaft than to pay for the labor to replace just the bearing.
take it to the garage
Unbolt/remove driveshaft. Use U-joint press to remove old U-joint, install new and replace driveshaft.
The driveshaft is removed to replace the clutch by unbolting the u-joints and retaining caps on each end of the drive shaft. The shaft can then be collapsed slightly to allow for easier removal.
There is no coil pack on that year.
