Accepted Answer

Some important information for selecting the correct CV boot is the type of part needed; fitment position, joint type (tripod, rzeppa, plunge joints) and date limitation of the unit. As car manufacturers regularly update certain peripherals and design of their models, some CV boots will only be suitable for particular models of certain years. For more information on CV boots

Question 3

Helpful Tips

Accepted Answer

Constant velocity (CV) joints are a drivetrain component commonly found on most modern vehicles. They transfer power from the vehicle’s transmission and differential to the wheels in order to drive the vehicle. CV joints have a greased flexible joint that allows the axle to flex according to road conditions, with minimal effect on power delivery. This grease is then housed within a flexible rubber CV boot. When CV joints begin to fail, it may be due to a damaged CV boot. There are some tell-tail signs: excessive vibration when driving, loud clicking noises when turning and grease on the edge of the tire. Any problem with your CV joint assembly is a serious safety issue. If you notice any of the above symptoms, you should consult a professional mechanic without delay and have it replaced immediately.
