Symptoms of a damaged inner CV joint in a car: It can cause abnormal noises from the CV joint during acceleration or turning. Damage to the CV joint is usually caused by a torn rubber boot, which leads to leakage of lubricating grease inside the CV joint, resulting in abnormal wear. Once abnormal wear occurs, the clearance in the CV joint increases, leading to unusual noises. The CV joint is a crucial component located at the end of the drive shaft, connecting the drive shaft to the wheel. Without a CV joint, power cannot be transmitted to the wheels. It is recommended that car owners inspect the rubber boot of the CV joint during regular maintenance by lifting the car with a jack. If the rubber boot is damaged, it should be replaced immediately.
