Decided to change the springs to factory ones on my Williams this evening (another thread on that to follow) and when putting the shock back in got a strong smell of transmission fluid :cry:

The red line shows where the gaiter section has come away from the passenger side driveshaft. Do I need to get a whole new driveshaft from Renault? or what parts do I need?
I assume for removal (I've taken out the 3 bolts around the gaiter) I just need to take off the (what looks like) 30mm bolt on the hub and it will slide out? Any other strange bits I should expect to fall out/have to replace during this?
The gearbox is new and was fitted by a garage before I got the car, so it is fresh fluid that has stained my paving :oops:
Thanks
