Also when you change out your axle, Lay them down side by side and insure of length, spline count, and type that it is equal in every way with the new. on the shaft between the ends, there is a round piece on the old one that the new one will not have. That is not a problem as long as the rest of it lines up. check your seal carefully for cracks, splits, or leaks, I usually replace them to ensure nothing goes wrong that would dissastisfy a customer. It is a well-shot video clear and accurate and informative. One of the best I've seen.

Outstanding narration of technique. Just did mine in about an hour, local mechanics estimate was about $490 before tax. One cheap impact set for $30 and both axles for $110 has the job done. Many thanks.

Trans fluid drips out quickly (pours slowly?) when the driver's side axle is removed. Did not prepare for that, but great video! The car I worked on is a rust bucket compared to this one, but it was still a quick fix. One of my axles rusted in half inside a factory rubber damper not installed on the car in this vid. I did not expect my axles to release this easily, but they both did. The passenger side needed a few taps from a punch. Tool gathering, setup, and cleanup was more work than the job. 3.5 hrs start to finish for both sides, thanks to this video. My first time replacing axles on a FWD car. And thanks for the axle nut torque spec!

That's very nice! I lived in Texas since I bought my Accord in 2009 until 2018 when I moved to New England. I replaced all four rotors last week (second time). A couple of them were pretty stuck. I wonder how much its due to the salt here. Either way, I'm getting ready to replace the bearings this coming weekend. I know the rotors will come out easy so hoping that the bearing hub and the bearing itself won't be too much trouble. I found the hubs with the bearings online so I plan on discarding the old hubs.

2:45 An old school trick to doing this without the tire on the car, and without an impact gun, is to wedge a flat head or slotted screwdriver (NOT a Phillips head) between the top edge of the brake disc (where the vent slots are.....NOT where the brake pad makes contact with the disc), and the caliper. The screwdriver will get wedged between the disc and the caliper preventing the disc from turning.

Just so viewers know. I tried looking for a pickle fork and I could not find one. The term 'Axle Popper' is the name most sellers recognize and use. Also loosening the Upper Ball joint as you showed and taking unbolting the lower ball joint. that works better. Even better is to remove the fork from the Shock get it out of the way it's easier than fighting to get the axle out. I hope that helps.

Have a accord cu2. Mounts have been changes and it doesn't make any noise when turning hard left or right. It makes a noise goimg straight but sometimes it makes it. Its usually around 40km and below it when letting off the pedal it makes a rhythmic perodic clicking or clanking sound. It aslo vibrates around 110km the steering does not shake. The front two seats do and passenger seat on the left vibrates hard. The floor too vibrates.

Let off the gas and at low speed of 40 if your coasting you'll hear it. Abive 40km or below can't hear it. You can hear a really tiny noise of the same sound if you put the vehicle in cruise.

Hey I’m wondering if you can help me out with some info. I have a 2010 Honda Accord and it vibrates as I accelerate. I can feel the vibration through the gas pedal, the seats and a little on the steering wheel. Basically the whole front of the vehicle. Do you think replacing this part would fix the issue or would I need to do something else? I’ve already balanced my wheels and also tried different tires. I’m not quite sure what else the issue would be. Thanks in advance!
@HelpingHandAutoRepair 4 жыл бұрын
Adan Perez hey I’m sorry. Don’t know if you fixed your problem but if you get the vibration or wobbling under acceleration ONLY, most likely your inner CV joints have failed. I would recommend replacing the axles at this point after you have determined which one was bad.

bad question here but its the same on the other side as well? and when you do this you do both of them at the same time?
@HelpingHandAutoRepair 4 жыл бұрын
It’s more or less the same. The other axle can be bought as a complete axle with the intermediate shaft attached OR it can be bought just by itself with only the outer axle portion. Jack up the car and you will see what the difference is. There is an outer axle that attaches to what’s called the intermediate shaft (bolted up behind the engine) I like to replace the whole thing because it’s easier for me. Right where the outer axle meets the intermediate shaft, there is a carrier bearing held on by two or three bolts. Remove those bolts then you can pop the intermediate shaft out of the transmission just like you would in this video I have shown. I got a complete axle from Oreilly auto parts. But if you look around you should be able to find it anywhere. As far as replacing both sides? You can if you want to. That’s up to you.

Question... just drove 2009 Honda accord and within 1 minute the car will start with very loud grinding noise but will not move when put into drive. It made a very loud sound and I found the damper on the ground. For past month or so the car makes a sound when accelerating. I'm assuming that I will need to replace the entire CV axel but im concerned about this loud grinding noise when I put the car in drive and pressed on the gas. Have you seen the damper ever just fall on the ground and what are the odds I did any damage to the transmission? I didn't see any transmission fluid on the ground. Vehicle has 145k miles on it.

Yes Honda crank pulleys have been known to fail. The rubber breaks down and the outer pulley just falls right off. Seen it happen many times.

I have a 2012 accord. Just like the one on this video. Its making u humming almost grinding noise. And it seems to me like its coming from the end of the axle that goes into the tranny. At first i thought it was a bearing from the wheel. Any suggestions or ideas what it could be?

Thanks ,,so true. Just wanted to see if you guys had any ideas of what could cause that noise. Thanks again

The way you’re describing it sounds like a wheel bearing. To check the wheel bearing, You can jack the car up and leave the wheel on. With the wheel suspended in the air, grab the tire at 12 o’clock and at 6 o’clock and wiggle the wheel. If there is play up and down, the wheel bearing is possibly bad.

I have a 2011 Accord LX sedan and when I drive and hit around 50-70 mph, the steering wheel starts to vibrate a little, looks like its jerking left and right ever so slightly when it happens. Also vibrates a bit when I brake from that speed. Do you know that the problem is?
@HelpingHandAutoRepair 4 жыл бұрын
David Xiao could be a few things unfortunately. Does it vibrate under acceleration FROM 50 up to 70? If so then I would lean towards inner Cv axle failure. If it does not vibrate/wobble under acceleration then I would be looking at something else. When you are driving at a steady speed within 50-70mph an out of balance wheel could cause vibration. Severely worn front shocks can cause vibration. Braking hard or even moderately from 70mph can be worn shocks or warped brake rotors.

I exactly have the same problem with my 2012 Honda Accord as yours. Thought it was the rear engine mount, replaced but didn't fix the vibration. Haven't tried replacing the axles yet.

Sir, I have a 2011 Honda Accord V6. The car jerks Only when I accelerate and right when it hits 2RPM and up. I have already installed new OE Spark Plugs, Air filter, Wheel Alignment when I purchased new tires, and cleaned the fuel system. Could it possibly be the Axle?

It jerks when it’s shifting?
@jairogutierrez7194 3 жыл бұрын
Helping Hand Auto Repair thanks for your reply. It’s an automatic transmission and it doesn’t jerk when shifting. Literally only when I press on the gas pedal and it passes 2RPM and hold the accelerator for about 3 to 4 seconds then the gear changes on its own and the jerking diminishes.
