SIGNS THAT TELL YOU THAT THERE IS A NEED OF AXLE AND CAR DRIVESHAFT REPAIR & REPLACEMENT:
Recognizing problems early on your CV axle and joints can help prevent expensive repairs. There are signs to watch out for when planning to take your vehicle for axle or drive shaft repair services.
- Vibrations From Underneath the Car: If you experience vibrations coming from underneath the vehicle, it indicates that the parts in the driveshaft have worn-out.
- Loud Noises from The Driveshaft: Rattling sounds when the bushing or bearing wears out and limits the driveshaft’s ability to rotate the tires correctly. Squeaking noise at low speed caused by a universal joint in need of lubrication. Clicking or knocking sounds that are caused
due to a faulty CV axle or stabilizing drive axle. These noises point to a driveshaft malfunction that probably needs to be repaired or replaced.
- Difficulty Turning: A bad drive shaft may damage the universal joint, causing the wheels to bind. This makes turning difficult, and the car may pull to one side.
- Shuddering While Accelerating: Loose axle assembly components like a universal joint or bad centre bearings in the drive shaft may cause shuddering accompanied by unusual noises while accelerating. A split CV joint can also cause it. This happens when water enters the joints and causes the grease to leak. A split CV joint requires immediate repair as it can cause intense shuddering, especially when turning corners.
What can be done to avoid problems with the axle and driveshaft?
If the driveshaft stops working, you may not even be able to drive your car as your tires won’t have any power to move. So, it’s a good idea to follow routine maintenance and basic car care. For example:
- Regular maintenance & inspection of your car axle and driveshaft system.
- Keep the axle clean and replace the worn-out components as necessary.
- Ensure that your car has proper wheel alignment.
