A friend of mine told me he feels like he's in a deep hole full of water.

I know he means well.

Right - that sounds similar so I use expanding pliers to open it out and the cv joint should slide off the shaft? No, unfortunately not. So the snap ring only just squeezes into the CV joint shaft hole with a swift knock. If you take the whole driveshaft off, this probably just means gently droppin...

Done! I'm now the proud owner of 20L of Honda's finest ATF. Thanks for the tip-off!
