Possible signs of a CV axle problem include repetitive clicking while turning, shuddering under acceleration, or grease escaping from a damaged joint boot. The symptoms vary depending on which joint is affected and how it has worn.

A torn boot is a reason for inspection even if the joint is still quiet. Tire, suspension, and mount problems can also cause noises or vibration that resemble an axle concern.

Certified Transmission at 5700 North Oak Trafficway in Gladstone can inspect the axle and related components before recommending a repair.
