What Sound Does a CV Joint Make When It's Faulty?
1 Answers
CV joint noise is a metallic friction sound. Reasons for CV joint noise: If the CV joint experiences abnormal wear, the car will produce unusual noises while driving. The cause of abnormal wear in CV joints is insufficient lubrication. There is a rubber boot on the CV joint; if this boot ages and develops oil leaks, the lubricant inside the CV joint will leak out, leading to abnormal wear. Solutions for CV joint noise: It is recommended that car owners check the drive shafts for deformation and inspect the CV joint boots for any signs of leakage during every maintenance service. If the CV joint boot shows signs of aging, it should be replaced promptly.
