I have what sounds like a "clink" sound comming from the right(I think) front end. It happens when going under 10mph, i'm guessing a front cv? Sounds like 2 steel ball bearings tapping. Thought I would check with the CRD experts on here before I start shelling out the $$$. Thanks All! |

Sounds, no pun intended, like a CV joint especially if the noise is loader when turning (ex. if the click gets loader when turning right then it's the right side joint). IIRC there are rebuild kits available but I don't have source information but more importantly a number of folks have had problems getting the proper length front axle/CV joint assembly. It's apparently all too common for the replacement on supplied to be too short by a significant amount. As I recall NAPA rebuilds are generally ok but be sure to check especially if you have any amount of lift. |
