Removing FL drive shaft

[Fzs1000n]

Hi all,

I want to remove the FL drive shaft so I can put on a new CV joint.

My Q is: as I'm rotating the drive shaft to get access to the gearbox end bolts, being a 4Motion, can the back wheels be left on the ground so it can rotate??? I'm unsure as never done the on a AWD before.

Cheers for any advice

Yes, it's fine.

It's only 4Motion when the Haldex module says so.

it is a 4Motion so i have to have all wheels off the ground I guess

No.

With the key off, it is just a front wheel drive.
