Axles and boots for 6 spd C30
It seems everyone in Christendom has the rebuilt axles w CV joints for the Volvo C30 Automatic version. I have the 6 speed car. 2 questions...
1.) Are the CV boots for the 6 speed different from the Automatic version? One is ripped (rt inside) and the other side not too far behind. Recommended item or vendor? Some mfgrs say they fit either, but Volvo says they are different.
2.) Is there a source for somewhat reasonably priced rebuilt axles with boots for 6 speed cars. I'd have thought Europe would have them everywhere, if not here in America.
Thanks

A few parts sites to add to your bookmarks:
fcpeuro.com
europarts.com
tascaparts.com
replacement boots are available - OEMs go in the $40 range. Just make sure you clean/regrease. If you decide you need a new axle, it looks like the C30 manual shares parts with other models. Here's what eeuroparts.com noted in their catalog:
Axle Assembly - Driver Side (Manual Trans) by Genuine Volvo
Vehicle Fitment: Volvo: C30 2008-12 | C70 2006-11 | S40 2004-10 | V50 2005-10

Tasca is a Volvo dealer so they show diagrams and OEM part numbers on their page (a great resource and they are reported to have the best Volvo OEM prices in the US)
