The axle shaft dust cover boots on my 2007 S-type R are split open due to age. The U-joints are in excellent condition ...so far ...and are still coved with grease and have NO play. This car has only 47000 miles. I just can't see the labor and expense involved in removing the axle shafts simply to replace the dry rotted boots. Does anyone any thoughts or even experience with a 'fix' for this even it is temporary? ....Maybe something a bit more sophisticated than duct tape.
Any ideas would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Bob

hi
just get some new cv boots and get them replaced, drive shafts are quite expensive, cheaper to replace them now that the whole lot later
cheers
