Im just a girl trynna make sure I don’t get ripped off. Thank you so much for the information!

This is the visual explanation I’ve been looking for THANK YOU !

Thank you very much. Other people on KZfaq don’t have that lucid mind to explain well like that. Thank you again

Thanks for the detailed description…the best i have seen so far

Thank you, very good explanation simple and clear easy to understand even for people don't have any experience about cars👍👍👍 appreciate your time

Thanks man saved me the diagnostics free 💪🏼💪🏼💪🏼

Nice explaining variety of signs of bad drive axle. The over 45mph humming or shacking is most likely axle issues. Also could be wheel Hub Bearing. Axle is cheap and needed after 100k so change first. Then do hub bearings if any noise persist. Most likes only when turning slightly it will start humming at that point.

Very informative! Thanks for sharing!

Very informative thank you

Thankyou . No one will pinpoint which turn is which axle . Great video & thx again .

Nice work explaining the Tripod joint noise, it much less common.

Great 👍 information you help me fix my problem. Thanks

I feel and hear all those symptoms in my axle area. Thanks bro.

Good advice. Thanks

Thank you for this video.

Nice explanation, thank you

This guy is one of the best hands down👇

Best explanation I've seen

Amazing. A Pep Boys shop in my area said my F Axle needs repair, yet I notice none of these symptoms when driving 😳😳

Thanks for the different signs... i didn't know the left n right turn.

Great explanation!

Nicely Done!!! Thank you!!!

Thanks mate, you are someone who just explains it-oh yeah grease doesnt really lubricate it cools and keeps the rust away

Thank you I wish I could find a mechanic like you

Thank you!

I wanted more info on the slow acceleration but great info thanka

Awesome video thanks

Excellent!

Explanation I was looking for on my 2004 BMW! I'm scared to drive it to the shop now. Lol

I have a knocking sound in the area of engine on our 2003 Chevy Cavalier. The sound depends on rpm, but doesn't change if you shift gears. So I hope it might be a worn CV Axle on the Passenger side (Right side). When I've replaced the transmission fluid on that car I also noticed, that the part of the inner part of the CV Axle on RS is covered w/oil or smth. Nothing is dripping, but the surface is kind of wet. I think maybe it is leaking CV Axle seal causes all that noise. The film is very helpful for me. Thank you.

You're the best brother. Thank you

This was a great video. Just replaced my left CV joint. I have a weird clicking noise when going over speed bumps and I really can't find anything on KZfaq about it. It's not the CV joint, but it almost sounds like the same metallic click.

Thanks man!

I hope yousee this. My ford focus 2007 when driving front wheel on both side have a slight jerk mostly going up hill

I have been dealing with trying to pinpoint these same sounds coming from my lifted Ranger for months now.. That 'ting ting ting' sound is exactly how it started when rolling down the road. It has become progressively worse and grinds and pops when in a tight turn radius, especially in reverse. Thank you for this video, I'm closer to figuring my issue out than I was before I seeing it! 👍

Got mine done 2 days ago. Now my car runs and turns like it's brand new. It was the clicking that made me realize its a CV joint issue.

The only mechanic I trust!

NICE VIDEO

I replaced both axles on a 99 Honda , it still giving premature axle failure symptoms help! When I’m going 35/40 on curved roads , and turning and give any amount of gas into the turn it feels bad vibration and sounds like vibration from the front end of my vehicle . All the suspension parts have been replaced and I have new rotors calipers and pads as well .

Helpful

Thank you for this video my question is, I have 2022 Camry hybrid. I replaced the front hub bearings, and I stripped both axle threads. My mechanic replaced the passenger axle but the driver he only rethreaded, after picking the car up from him, it started to make single clunking noise only when accelerating and braking, sometimes when turning but like I said only single clunk, do you think the driver axle is damaged either on my repair or the mechanic rethreading while the axles were on the the car? I didn’t have this clunking noise before.

No clunking or clicking when turning, but I do have the occasional clunk when slowing to a stop. I also hear a “wuh wuh wuh” noise when I’m driving that I only hear above 30mph, and it is higher pitched and a slightly faster tempo when at highway speed, as well as a slight vibration in the steering wheel and floorboard at the pedals. I noticed that the tempo changes around turns and it gets very loud over a hard bump - a loud “WOM”. I have no idea what it could be, it seems to be from the front end, but I just got the front wheel bearings done about 3 months ago.

Can you make video about intermediate bearing in Honda accord 2018-2024

Is it a good idea to change the wheel bearing to

My 2014 Jetta has started developing a rhythmic speed dependent clunk whenever I let off the gas… it’s got 260k on it so I’m guessing it’s the drivers side axle… changed the wheel bearing on that side about 30k km ago… safe to say it’s nothing else if it’s rotational noise? Never does it while accelerating or under load.

So quick question to you my friend if you just change the axle and the car have a small vibration when moving off what can it be

I replaced everything except the cb shafts on an 05 trailblazer LS about 3 years ago….it all of the sudden started making this weird humming grinding sound from the front end…I thought the wheel bearings went bad again but they’re looking ok…only thing I can think of is the cv shafts are making the noise or the u joints possibly…

Thanks for this video, I'm not sure if my driveshaft is faulty, I get a distinct clunk when putting the car into reverse or drive from a standstill, but oddly not immediately, so about one second after I have selected 'Drive' I get a 'clunk' from the right hand side of the car, could this be a faulty/worn driveshaft I don't know, how can I physically check for this fault, what to look for ? The automatic gearbox changes smoothly in normal operation, with no clunking during gear changes, though I do know the driveshaft on that side was replaced at some stage with a non original part, so I'm little suspicious it's been fitted with a cheap part and playing up, but I'm not sure how to check for this ! Your experience would be appreciated, as I can't afford to have a garage fix this at the moment !

How about knocking in a straight line. Can they be a warn bucket. My bucket has a lot of play on my Accord

Hello, Help! I'm hoping you can help us. We have this issue with our 6 yr old 2017 M-B Sprinter van 2500 with only 69K miles. It was making the loud noise, that we thought was the wheel bearing that also needs repaired for one wheel and that is why we took to a M-B service center, they've advised us that it needs a new rear axle for a total cost of around $11,000!! I was researching the VIN and it only shows one sale, which was when we purchased it on 9/30/19. I did find a piece of information on a carfax type report that the MB dealership we bought it from purchased this vehicle at auction in 8/2019, this purchase isn't even showing on the report based on the VIN. We're looking at MB to cover this expensive repair because there doesn't seem to be any exterior damage that we may have done to the rear axle, and it seems this should not be happening on a 6 yr old van with 69K miles. If the rear DEF oil wasn't replaced would it cause this issue? We feel the axle must have been defective. In addition, it just seems odd that there is no titling prior to our purchase. It was manufactured in Germany and it only had 5K miles when we purchased it. It would seem that when it was received in the U.S. it would have been titled at that time. Of course, the OPC warranty just expired 4/02/23 and it would have covered the rear axle repair/replacement. The VIN# sticker on the left side of the interior driver seat base shows the in-service date of 9/2019. Can you please share any insight you may have based on my description? Thank you for any assistance you can provide.

What about if the rubber boots are not torne but bounce and vibration is there still could be cv axle

2017 s550 4matic. I have no noise but doing 35 plus while gas pedal pressed it shakes bad. Let pedal go it stops. Car only has 60k on the dash … your thoughts please ?

I have a Mazdaspeed 3 , I have bad clunking, I thought it might be sway bar bushings. It recently started popping a little bit while turning, not much only a couple of pops. Car has 130k miles on original axles.

Does a broken boot affect ABS and Power steering light? Mazda 3 06

1:37 is it safe to drive like this for awhile before i get it fix? Or push it back in? I used my vehicle for delivery and just today i heard a popping noise like what you said. Maybe i didn't push it all the way in, about 2 weeks ago. And now its making the noise. Funny is the noise came back after a car wash. Pop pop pop when in motion. If its safe to continue so, i get it check on Sunday, which today is Saturday. Have to earny money today.

This is exactly my situation right now. When accelerating from a complete stop I hear that clunky noise also when your left or right …I’m just gonna replace both front axle

I get a vibration after 65-70mph. Is that a bad axle? I also need rotors and pads too

Mine clicks when I turn left but only when accelerating. It doesn’t do it if I coast in a turn. Does that sound like a CV axle?

Great video. Mine is now vibrating during acceleration only. Other times it's fine. I will replace it out, but I am wondering if the vibration is a "beginning warning" and I have some time before it actually goes bad??

My wife's mini cooper clunks excessively while driving more so on any bumps in the road but also on the flat. I checked the lower control arm bushing. The look feel good. While checking around I put my hand on the 1/2 shaft and gave it a shake. I got the clunking sound. I'm not sure if it's "expected mini behavior" but I hate it. Seems many Mini's have clunks and rattles that people just live with. Not me....

There are two types of axle joints used in the CV joint. Inner and outer . Right? It would be nice to know what sound specifically comes from each if there is any way to tell. The clunck probably can come from either. But there must be a slightly different vibration when the inboard joint wobbles because it is wearing out. The rotational havoc going on there should feel somehow closer to the center maybe?. And an outboard CV wear out maybe makes the wheel wobble like crazy at acceleration? Another thing to point out is the "balance" of the shafts as they rotate. I case a vibration mystery presents. Quality there has been compromised. Nothing wrong with the joint. ..yet... The shaft is wacked right out a the bag. But even if you can isolate the culprit they all work as a team on each side and everybody seems to agree replacing individual ends just isn't done very much. For practical reasons. Or not. There is a formula or something involving MTBF (Mean Time Before Failure) Supposedly there is a high degree of predictable failure. In a perfect world every CV joint would age the same and if one was starting to go the other would be expected to be going too. As though the two types of joints behaved just like old fashioned headlights. All things considered the wheel side of the CV shaft has to be more abused by the road and the inner one has to be more abused by the engine/road /driver interface AND they both have to rotate. Perhaps they do fail very close to each other. generally. But I wonder which fail first more. In the old days a universal joint was repairable and you greased them. And the rotational mass could be formidable.

My 2008 ford f150 rear wheel drive rear wheel wobbles a lot, ive changed the tires and the brake rotors, it's still happening, I went over a huge curb and this has been happening since, could it be my axle?

#greatworkbrother

Mines been leaking for who knows how long. Bought it two months ago and didn't realize i bought it that way There's grease all over. There hasn't been any sound other than i just heard a couple of days ago that clicking when going up steep hill. Do you think it might be too far gone or can I just replace the boot and maybe put some grease in there?

i just had to get my 2019 Ram front driverside CVAxle replaced kept hearing this clicking and rubbing noise when turning fully to left side

For the clunking noise when accelerating which axcel needs to be replaced? Driver or passenger?

When i reverse/start/deaccelerate it’s start like a “clunking” noise like “bombom” and I can feel it underneath what is that? (Golf mk4)

Does it affect the transmission of the car?

What is causing floating in the rear-end after an accident where it was hit in the rear tire? Passenger side? Light body damage but something is wrong, looks like the wheel is maybe pushed in but not tilted ?

I replayed my CV joints three months ago and broke again what cost that’s to Break again

I do get vibration when driving about 60+ mph. If I'm driving 70 and let off the gas it will vibrate more and sometimes I will hear a clunking noise. Is that also with the axle?

Can it make a clicking noise while going straight?

What if u Jack up both sides and the right side is moving but the left side moves then sometimes stops and acts like it doesn't want to move? Is that a loose axle?

I wish you lived by me. You are smart with mechanics. If your by 34983 i would be so happy lol

what about if it does it while turning and going straight ??

So a shop told me it was my rack and pinion. My car only clunk when turning left or right at red lights or stop signs. I got vibration and worn tires on the lefted all the time.

I hope this is what’s going on with my car it has me worried thinking it’s my transmission because one day it was good the next had little power then the next day I couldn’t accelerate I did experience strong vibrations while driving left and right but replaced my right axle I took my car to a transmission shop I’m hoping and praying they give me good news. This really made me depressed.

What if you hit bump here front end rattle

What if you hear clicking when turning steering wheel stationary?

thanks! my cars axels looks wise look fine (no torn or bents) but at 45+ my car starts to shake bad but only while on the gas. if i let off it goes away but the second i give it gas the whole front end shakes. it’s a fwd maybe bad axels internally?

What if you only hear the click once and only occasionally?

Will my car jerk if i have a bad axle as well?

I have a 2011 Mercedes Benz c300 Use to shake a lot and make noise when Turning Went to mechanic he said it was the CV Axle driver side and been having it home till I fix it Today turn it on it wouldn’t move I switch to all gears R N D isn’t because the CV axle is broken ? Help

Do you only use OEM axles or other brands like from rockauto? Which do you have good results with?

My 2000 Subaru outback making a loud clicking sound when I make a turn and someone told me is wheel bearing

Can you just replace the boot or entire axle

How many year/mile do these axles usually last? I don't hear any of noises you mentioned BUT the boots on the axle are torn. Can you just put in new boots or replace the whole axles? thanks.

Have a inconsistent clicking when turning doesn’t happen all the time, put the truck on ramps (Honda ridge line) axles look good and it doesn’t always make the clicking sound

I hit the curb sideways, on the passenger side front and rear wheel hit it sideways on a spin out, now feels like something is rubbing when driving, what can it be, I did inspect the front suspension and saw my inner strut rubber joint was damaged. What you think that rubbing could be from

Hai, I have Honda City 2014(UAE). Sometimes make a sound. For example, sometimes the accelerator pressing time (is 0-5km), and sometimes max 40km running time I release the accelerator that time(max. continuously 4 tik tik tik tik sound) (Turning time no sound.) I went to the garage, they check, and they don't find issues. Shoke no issue. Right side axle boot inner & outer before I change. What is the issue?

Selling my 2016 Honda 2 door automatic just pass inspection Pa title in hand

I hear clicking when accelerating on turns when it is very cold outside. If I am easy on the gas it doesn't click. Warmer weather it is ok. 2010 chevy hhr. 53,000 miles. Edit: When I say clicking I mean like click click click click click or tic tic tic tic tic sort of like turning a knob on a timer or something. I wonder if something wrong with ABS or traction control could do that if something is wrong? I had my ABS worked on and also bearings replaced before. What if something was not put back right like a metal ring or clip or something? It's fine now in the warmer weather.

You just confirmed my suspicion my axle started to click when I turn left so it’s my driver side. But when I drive straight no noise. Bu my boots are all good no leaks?

pep boys say my cv axel is leaking so what’s the cause ?

Nice video. I guess my problem is the axle. I get thumping noise while decelerating. How much would it cost for a 2005 odyssey front passenger?

My guy, you're the shiiit, better yet The Poo-poo! Well done, super easy to follow. Whenever I see your videos, I thank the heavens!

what if I only have a vibration at 65 mph and higher , but smooth and normal under.

After firing any of these issues is an alignment required?

My mechanic just told me this is the issue on my car . I kept smelling a burning rubber smell while driving on and off

I damaged my cv axle when I pulled a tree to clear the road & it made grinding sounds when I braked. Now the constant velocity of slow speeds and when turning. We ruin the cv axle and know what we did and no one tells you how we ruined it. A little embarrassing to have done that to ourselves and now the costly repair for it.
