Can Half Shaft Failure Cause Transmission Abnormal Noise and Jerking?

[MacFelicity]

Only severe damage to the half shaft can cause transmission jerking. A faulty car half shaft will produce a metal friction sound or a metal clashing sound, mostly leading to transmission abnormal noise and resonance. If abnormal noise occurs while the vehicle is in motion, it is likely due to half shaft damage. If a clunking sound is heard while driving, it indicates abnormal wear of the half shaft CV joint. The half shaft of a car is a type of drive shaft responsible for transmitting power to the wheels on both sides of the same axle. Without the half shaft, power cannot be delivered to the wheels. The half shaft of a car is equipped with a CV joint. If the CV joint experiences abnormal wear, the car will produce a clunking noise while driving. The cause of abnormal wear in the CV joint is insufficient lubrication.
