Drivetrain FAQ
Answers about CV joints, axles, bearings, and vibrations.
Why does my car click when turning?
Clicking during turns often points to an outer CV joint issue, usually from a torn boot or wear.
What causes vibration when accelerating?
Common causes include axle/CV joint wear, wheel issues, or mount problems. We test to isolate the source.
Is a humming noise always a wheel bearing?
Often, but not always. Tire noise can mimic bearing noise. We diagnose by inspection and road testing.
Do you replace CV boots or the whole axle?
It depends on wear and contamination. Sometimes a boot can be replaced early; often an axle assembly is the most reliable fix.
Can I keep driving with a bad axle or bearing?
It’s risky. Components can fail suddenly and cause loss of control. It’s best to book an inspection quickly.
