    Hi. I need to replace the CV axle but couldnt find answer to how to detach the CV axle from the transmission side. Is it held by bolts like on many cars or is it some sort of surclip? And is the trans fluid going to leak out like on some cars? I have replaced the trans fluid around 40k miles ago so it about time again anyway but if that's the case i would like to know so i drain it first instead of having a messy surprise.
    Thanks
