Raise the front of the vehicle and securely support it on jack stands. Drain the transaxle lubricant. Remove the right drive axle. Remove the exhaust pipe bracket and bearing support-to-engine block bolts, and slide the intermediate shaft out of the transaxle. Be careful not to damage the differential seal when pulling out the shaft. Check the support bearing for smooth operation by turning the shaft while holding the bearing. If it feels rough or sticky, it should be replaced. Take it to a dealer service department or other repair shop, as special tools are needed for this job. Lubricate the lips of the transaxle seal with multi-purpose grease. Carefully guide the intermediate shaft into the transaxle side gear, then install the mounting bolts through the bearing support. Tighten the bolts. Reinstall the drive axle. Refill the transaxle with the proper type and amount of lubricant.

Inspect the driveshaft for dents or cracks. If dents or cracks are present, the driveshaft needs replacement.
