What I tend to do is buy stuff from ebay ( cv joints etc..) and get my dad to fit it :lol:

My Renault's CV joint is on it's way out, in the mean time try and coast when using lots of lock and try to steer as least as possible. It will help preserve it until it's fixed. When it's totally shot out, it will just spin inside itself and the car won't move, not a problem though it just means it needs replacing before the car will actually move :lol:
