Renault Clio 1994 - Steering column universal joint?

The Universal joint on the Steering column is worn. Renault only sell new joint with complete steering column - about £200. Has anyone managed to source new UJ or repair kit for one of these joints? My garage will repair joint if I can find parts - their parts suppliers can only supply new columns.

It is normally the joint above the UJ that wears. If you look on ebay you will see two types of 'Recon' columns. They are about £80.

One is where they put a new 'joint' in place of the rubber one and the other is where they just weld that part.

I do not have a view on whether the welded option is OK although it seems a common fix . If you are happy to have the joint welded (and it is NOT the UJ) then obviously you could remove the column, have it welded and then replace.

Thanks John - have searched all my local breakers and several on internet - no-one has one to match my car at moment.

I've come across this one too Keith - and I ended up getting a complete column from a beakers yard for the punter.
