2012 Prius c cv axle seated all the way ?

I'll have to go out and look at my generation 3 Persona that's sitting right out in the driveway when the sun lights up I don't think that is correct I believe it should be like the side with the rusty vibration damper and the other picture see how the washer the metal is sitting close to the transmission kind of fits like a glove so if your guy pull this out because he wouldn't have had the nut undone maybe through the hub and had something else I've done any pulled on it and the axle came instead of the three bearings and what not trying to pull out of the cup the actual axle shaft started to pull out of the transmission and then when he noticed it he tried to jam it back in and it looks like the The ring that goes on the end of the shaft that goes in the transmission it's opening maybe clocked wrong and now it can insert into the transmission because it's hanging the wrong way You have to look online and find a video and it'll instruct you how to clock the ring on the end of the axle shaft so that it's happily going into its boar You want to have the opening facing down at 6:00 if I'm not mistaken I believe that's right and then the axle shaft will push in and bury itself If it's facing much out of that it doesn't make the proper circle and you're trying to squish the ring into the bore unevenly look on YouTube for some videos it's much easier to see it than it is to say it..

 

you may want to report your post and ask a mod to move it to the c forum

 

If it's not making any noise and causing any other problems and you just don't want to mess with it then don't because it may be okay I can't tell from here I would have to pull the shaft that has the splines on it out of the transmission and check the end groove for the hog ring like ring at the end of the shaft and then turn it so it's clocked correctly and then push it back in its hole here and feel the click bolt up whatever so it doesn't move and then see what the gap is on that little dust seal after I do that If it comes back out and it shows that 1/8-inch or whatever that is there then I would assume it's built in. But at least I know that the hog ring looking ring is in fact seeded properly I guess if it's not it's not going to really make a huge heck of a lot of difference I can't really move when the hub and the ball joint and everything is tight and in place no place for it to go and if it wasn't seated reasonably well enough it would be sticking out furthermore than likely I don't have a c here but I will look on a generation 3 in about an hour and see if there's any difference in the spacing of that cover washer dust cover on either side of the three It may be just the way it sits simple enough
