206 urgent info required

Hope some of you can help quickly so I can get parts before folf shut for the holiday monday.
So I've changed the wheel bearing and the noise is not so bad. But it was masking another problem.
The drivers side inner cv joint seems to have gone up the swanny. there is a clicking noise and a rising/falling resonating noise now showing itself.
It's unlikely that I will be able to source a inner cv joint so it looks like a visit to the scrappy tomorrow.
the set up is a shaft into the gearbox which goes out to a bearing housing which is attached to the engine block. Then the innercv and a shaft to the outer cv. there is play in the inner cv but I've a mind to get a whole unit from the gearbox to the wheel.
the question is
how easy is it to get the shaft out of the gearbox?? and does the inner cv attach to the inner shaft in the same way that the outer cv attaches to the outer shaft. (Hope you see what I mean)
as usual many thanks in advance for your help.





If it looks wrong it probably is wrong.

I would personally go for the full shaft, pointless spliiting a good shaft. I would have thought the same as the majority apply brake crack hub nut with large socket and bar. And pull clear of the Diff. Some shafts have a clip which may require a pry bar to help them out of the splines





Life is like a bowl of fruit, funny how all the weird looking ones are left alone

undo the 2 10mm nut size bolts that hold the shaft into the bearing carrier and then the shaft near enough falls out of the gearbox.

sounds promising. Is there a clamping plate of sort that these bolts fit through to hold the bearing in place??

I'm assuming the 206 is like other Pugs, I aint actually done this job on one. The 2 M6 (10mm spanner size, or is it M7/11mm?) bolts that hold the support bearing have a fancy head which keeps them captive in the bearing housing while the edge of the head retains the bearing. You just undo the nuts & the bolt will push out of the housing & then the shaft will pull out.
The rising & falling resonating noise may well be this bearing on the way out, if I remember right it's just a press fit on the shaft & is just a stock bearing, nothing fancy & few quid at a bearing factors. Not that they'll be open today. I'm sure it's one that we keep on the shelf at work but I'm hardly handy for you! A full shaft from the scrappy does sound the best bet.
When you pull the shaft from the box you'll lose a bit of gearbox oil, the further you jack it on the driver's side the less you'll lose!
