Model: Vauxhall Astra Astra H - Years 2004-2010
Part: Drive shaft
Operation: How to replace a drive shaft in the Opel Astra?

In this tutorial we can see how to replace a drive shaft in the Opel Astra, very simple operation. Before proceeding, we will have to lift the car at least on the side where we are going to operate, obviously taking all the necessary safety measures. Once this is done, we remove the wheel, unscrew the bolt securing the lower arm to the hub and unhook the metal band of the headset, using a flat-tipped screwdriver. We then rotate the brake disc outwards, grab the drive shaft and extract it from the differential housing. We assemble the spare following the reverse procedure and make sure that each bolt is screwed tightly.
