All front wheel drive cars have two drive axles, one for each front wheel. A special type of universal joint, called a CONSTANT VELOCITY UNIVERSAL JOINT, or CV JOINT for short, transmits the power to each wheel, while allowing the wheels to turn from right to left. These CV joints have grease inside of them. This grease is held in place by CV JOINT BOOTS, rubber coverings which hold the grease in and keep dirt and moisture out.

What we can do for you:

• These boots should be replaced and the grease renewed every 50,000 miles.
• Once the boot is torn, vital lubrication slings out and dirt and moisture get in the joint. In a matter of only a few weeks or even days THE AXLE IS DESTROYED!!!
• We can prevent that!

Tip:

• A bad axle will make a clicking sound when you turn around a corner, but will be fairly quiet when you're driving straight ahead.
