Clio CV Boot Repalcement Cost   
Wife complained that her car was squeeking when she turned the corner.  A 
quick inspection showed there to be grease splattered all over the inside of 
the wheel and the steering assembly etc.  How much would it cosr to get the 
CV boot replaced at a garage or is this an easy enough DIY repair (obviously 
avoiding the split boot and glue option)?

Thanks,

Andy

Many thanks.  I guess 1 hours labour to do the job so looking at 100 give 
(or take - not bloody likely) a bit all.

Cheers,
