Axle and cv shaft repairs

An axle is a rod or spindle on which a wheel or pair of wheels rotate, allowing them to transfer torque from the transmission to the wheels. The axle is typically composed of a metal shaft with two constant velocity (CV) joints, one at each end. A CV shaft, also known as a drive shaft or propeller shaft, connects the transmission of a vehicle to the differential, which in turn powers the wheels. CV shafts use CV joints to allow for smooth and continuous power transfer during acceleration and turning.

Signs that your axle and/or CV shaft need repairing or replacing include 

1. Clicking or popping noises: One of the most common sign of a failing CV axle is a clicking or popping noise when driving, especially when turning.

2. Vibration: If you experience excessive vibration in your car while driving, it may indicate a problem with the CV shaft or axle.

3. Shaking or wobbling: A worn or damaged CV shaft or axle can also cause your car to shake or wobble.

4. Difficulty turning: If you notice that your car is having difficulty turning, especially at low speeds, it may indicate a problem with the CV joint.

5. Grease on the tire or undercarriage: If you find grease on your tire or the undercarriage of your car, it may indicate a leaking CV boot.

6. Uneven tire wear: If your tires are wearing unevenly, it could indicate a problem with your axle or CV shaft.

7. Reduced performance: A damaged or worn CV shaft or axle can also lead to reduced performance or power output.
