Drive shaft

Post by Tom Rapini »

Starting to get a lot of clicking from the drive shaft when I turn under power. Are these repairable, or do I need to look for a replacement? Are they the same part on both driver and passenger side? Same on Coupe versus Sedan?
Thanks,
Tom

Your cv joints have run out of grease.  Jack up the front and rotate the wheels while looking at the wheel side boot (could be engine side, but unlikely).  It's cracked and the grease has leaked out.  Replacement boots are available, get cv grease, clamps and a clamp tool.  Will require a axle puller to remove the knuckle.  Not a fun job but can be done.
