not sure if proton sell the cv joint itself, but if they do, maybe RM100 or so...or somewhere near there. that is for proton saga, wira range but if perdana, i don't think it is around there. maybe double? the price above is for one side only. you might need to change both sides (L/R). if centre giving sound (not likely), you might need to change the centre.

if they don't sell the cv itself, you need to buy the whole shaft which will be costly. nearly RM1k for both sides.

good luck:regular_smile:

hmm....how abt 'tok' sound when ever i turn my steering, it only happen after my car is park for some times, bcos of the spring?
spring normally don't give that sound. i guess it is the brake pad is gripping the rotor. it could be your rotor wrap or disk pad uneven wear caused the brake pads gripping the rotor harder than normal and this cause tok sound when you park your car too long.
