CV Joint Replacement

Hi all

Thanks

Wait until its starts making the loud clicking noice then get it replaced. It will probably take less than an hour.

If you don't hear noise I don't see how they reckon the joint is gone, perhaps the CV boot is torn ? If so get a new boot put on, could save the joint then.

Thanks for the replies. I'll get somebody else to have a look at it over the weekend so in case it's the CV boot.
