Re: [cv removal] 1.8L w/auto transmission

["Craig Williams" <roccolister@hotmail.com>]

If you have a bolt-in style ball joint, you can remove the 3 bolts that hold
it into the a-arm and slide it out, OR pull out the 17mm bolt that hold the
front of the a-arm to the body. With either one of those out you should have
enough room to wiggle that whole a-arm around to get the splined part of the
axel out.
