SVA failure points:
Projections - diffuser edge radius, rear clam edge radius, and no mesh in the main from clam vent (thus allowing the knee device to get in and touch non conforming surfaces).
Bolts - a couple of suspension bolts don't expose enough turns beyond the nut top.
that's it for the SVA
Not sure on the CV - just stuffed the car back in the garage for the moment, but I will have a look later, and I'm exceptionally curious. I did note some grease had been flung from the CV, as the shaft was hot.... doesn't bode well.

Hi mate,
I had a drive shaft problem once on my road 5Exi - it would just 'pop-out' randomly.. It would happen if I took a right handed corner with a vengence..
Turned out that the shaft I was using was not the correct one - the stupid thing looked identical but when put next to the correct one it was about 1/4 inch too short.. So it would randomly snap out of place..
Worth checking..
