Instructions for Removing the Right Driveshaft

Model: Renault Modus MK 1 - Years 2004-2013
Part: Axle shaft

Lift the vehicle on suitable axle stands, remove the front wheel and the nut securing the driveshaft at the centre of the hub: it may be advisable to loosen this nut without fully unscrewing it before lifting the car; continue by removing the tie rod end from the steering box and that of the suspension wishbone to free the hub and create the necessary space to withdraw the driveshaft; then unscrew the fixing bolts of the driveshaft support and tap the centre of the hub to remove it first from the hub and then from the gearbox side.
