A used cv joints that fits one vehicle won't always fit another - even within the same model range. These questions help breakers match stock to your exact vehicle before they quote:
The Agila is a front-wheel-drive car, and front-wheel-drive cars do use CV joints — they are the joints that allow the driveshafts to transmit power to the front wheels while still allowing the suspension to move and the wheels to steer. So yes, the Agila does have CV joints, one on each end of each front driveshaft (inner and outer), and they are a genuine wear item on this model.
The Agila was sold in two distinct generations: the Agila A, built from 2000 to 2004, and the Agila B, built from 2004 to 2008, which was based on a different platform shared with the Suzuki Ignis. These two generations are not the same underpinning, so CV joints from an Agila A are very unlikely to fit an Agila B. Confirm the exact generation against your registration with the breaker before ordering.
Engine size can affect the driveshaft and CV joint specification because larger or more powerful engines may use heavier-duty components to handle the extra torque. The Agila was available with a range of petrol engines including 1.0, 1.2, and 1.4 units, so it is worth telling the breaker your exact engine size when sourcing a CV joint. This is especially important if you want to be confident the joint's rating is a match for your variant.
Trim level does not affect CV joint fitment on the Agila — the running gear is determined by the generation and engine, not whether the car is a Club, Design, or Expression. You may notice cosmetic differences between cars from different trim levels when collecting parts from a breaker, but these have no bearing on whether the CV joint itself will fit. Focus on matching the generation (A or B) and engine size rather than the trim badge.
Yes, it matters — always specify NS (nearside, left as you sit in the car) or OS (offside, right as you sit in the car) when asking a breaker for a CV joint. On some front-wheel-drive cars the driveshafts are different lengths left to right, which can mean the CV joints or shafts are not interchangeable side to side. Tell the breaker which side you need along with your generation and engine size to make sure you get the correct part.
A 2003 Agila is an Agila A, while a 2005 Agila falls into the Agila B generation, which was introduced in 2004 on a different platform. Because the two generations have different underpinnings, the CV joints are very unlikely to be interchangeable across that 2004 boundary. Confirm this directly with the breaker using your registration number before assuming a part will cross over.
