What does the rubber boot on my axle do?

It protects the CV joint, and that makes it a bigger deal than it looks. The boot seals grease around the joint and keeps dirt and water out, so when it tears, the joint quickly wears down and can turn a cheap fix into a full axle replacement. The technicians at Higher Standards Automotive can check your boots during a service. Stop in during Mon-Fri: 8:00 AM - 5:30 PM | Sat-Sun: Closed.

Why does my car click when I turn?

A clicking sound when turning is a classic sign of a worn CV joint on your axle. The clicking usually gets louder on sharper turns and often means the joint has lost its grease, frequently from a torn boot. It will not fix itself, so it is worth having looked at before the joint fails completely. Bring it to the expert team at Higher Standards Automotive and we'll confirm what's going on. We're open Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday.

What are the signs of a leaking axle seal?

The most common sign is a small puddle or greasy film near a wheel or where the axle meets the differential or transmission. A failing axle seal lets fluid escape and lets contaminants in, which over time can damage the bearing or joint nearby. If you spot a leak in that area, the trustworthy team at Higher Standards Automotive can confirm the source and reseal it before it causes bigger problems5f .
