How a Worn CV Axle Can Cause Vibration
Vložit

- This video is mainly an informational video. In this video I have a great example of a CV axle with a worn inner joint that caused a vibration upon acceleration. I take the inner joint apart and show what happened to the inner joint and explain how a worn inner CV axle joint can cause a vibration upon acceleration.
Note: While it is very common for a worn inner CV axle joint to cause a vibration upon acceleration you need to keep in mind that this is not the only thing that can cause this symptom. You will need to properly diagnose your vehicle before performing a repair. Below is a link to a video that will give you SOME information to help you in diagnosing a vibration upon acceleration. (while this video has great information, it may not have ALL the information you need to properly diagnose your vehicle.)
Here is the link to that video: • Vibration Under Accele...
Also, the explanation of how an electric motor can slow a vehicle down was just a superficial explanation. Of coarse it was not the purpose of the video to go into depth about that. Also at about the 1:00 mark I mention that the electric motor slows the vehicle but I did it in a way that may seem like I said the motor uses the brake rotors to slow the vehicle down. What I was trying to say is that the motor, not the brakes, slow the vehicle.

In addition to slight vibration on acceleration, there is vibration when breaking hard at highway speeds. It's not the rotors. The cv axle (passenger side) would also make a rumbling sound when banking left above 55mph. It made a little noise on slow sharp turns-no clicking just a rumble. The boots have failed, making a mess. Getting it replaced today. I've learned my lessons about putting off repairs...it's no picnic. Great Video.
It's so much more valuable information when you know HOW something can cause vibration. Thank you for taking the time to explain.
No problem
Probably not here. It may be best to have it looked at.
@AusAhmet check motor mounts
@VatanTURK It's motor mount, the upper one. And if drive or reverse engaged and it jerked, the lower mounts as well. Definitely not the axle.
Your video is describing my issues exactly. I'm gonna have to check my cv axles. Only thing is I've put the vehicle in neutral and it still slowed down like the brakes were being applied as well as a harder brake pedal feel but only when the issue arises.
Thanks for that explanation. i recently bought a second hand car and had a vibration develop while going down hill with a feathered throttle at 75-80kmph. Eventually, on longer 25-30km trips the vibration would develop at any speed.
This was just after a clunk occurred and I was lucky to find a bolt from the RH inner CV sitting between the suspension arm and a chassis member. LUCKY!
Looking into replacing the Axles this month!
Good luck.
I have that problem with 2003 camry.
Thanks for the video.
Good video 👍🏻 I'm distracted by that mockingbird. He is going smooth TF off 😄
Good video of an example of the issue with the inner CV joint.
This has been the most helpful video for me yet. This is the first time I’ve heard someone say that you can have vibration after de-acceleration.
Me too! Don't have a hybrid vehicle but my 08 Fusion vibrates at de-acceleration and when accelerating from a complete stop. The description he gave at the beginning is exactly what my car does now!
@@frank-bmtz did you ever figure out the issue? Mines doing the the same. Along with a clacking noise upon acceleration and deceleration
It can happen on manual transmission cars while engine braking
👍tried to tell my dad that was his problem, kept saying trans is going out.
Thank you!
Thank you so much for your channel. I hope this is my problem because I'm having the exact symptoms. Your videos on this have been a blessing to my life. I wish I was your neighbor or your niece Lol. I need you in my life right now Lol
Good video. Thanks for the vital information.
Thank you this is very I formative I have a 2007 Hyundai azera and both of my cv joints are bad so I ordered 2
thank you, that was an informative video. keep it up. I have a NAZA RIA @ Kia Carnival in MALAYSIA, the same problem happened. so now at least I know what to do instead of spending money for unnecessary parts replacement. Sometimes when we go to the work shop, the repair man will tell many other problems that we have to pay for many parts replacement instead 1 actual problem, it just for their business income purposes. That is nonsense. Anyway your video is helping. TQ again.
This was exactly what i was looking for almost a week now. Just needed to confirm y would inner cv axle vibrate and cause noise while driving. Gives me confidence to just replace the tripod bearing rather then all inner cv. Cheper 50 compared to 400. Saved me half a days work inspecting myself and $350 on replacement. Thanks.❤
Good math, good thinking.
Very interesting, Thanks for sharing
Makes an annoying popping too when you hit the gas too and stop as well. And good showing how it's supposed to work too, it's supposed to be telescopic at the inside joint for the suspension and it extending on the jounce and rebound at the wheels.
Great info thank you for the knowledge.
Fantastic video and explanation! 👍 Helped a lot.
Thanks
Thank you for ur detailed explanation
Excellent video . Thanks for making it .
Glad you liked it!
Oddly enough, after several months of vibration when braking at 65mph+, I got this idea it might be the inner CV joint causing it on my CT200h. I’ve experienced the inner CV joint vibration on acceleration and didn’t think it could be the inner CV joint unless it also happened during acceleration.
Will know for sure once I replace it with a known good.
I hope it works out for ya!
Thank you for creating these videos...I don't know much about cars, (but wish I did!).. when my PT Cruiser started vibrating upon acceleration recently..I took it for service right away.
Despite my description of what was concerning me, the garage seemed to only plug the car into the diagnostic machine. They claimed it needed new plugs and wires...$700+..
OK...I guess?...I do know that bad plugs, and cracked wires can affect a car's smooth running. Those parts were original to the car(2006-I checked thru my bills to make sure)..
They called me at the end of the day, to say it ran better...but it still juddered. ..they also swapped out the rotors, to see if those were warped...(they were not)
After a few days...the car was finally fixed. It was the RF axle/CV joint.
Fearing an astronomical bill...to my surprise, they admitted their "misdiagnosing".. and changed the axle and rotors no charge.
This PT has been a great car, relatively few problems over the years.
I figure to keep it going as long as I can. As a senior, I'm in no position to take on a new car, or car payments, nor do I really want to.
I just wish mechanical stuff was taught in schools to women way back when. We weren't allowed to take any shop type courses when I was a youngster.
I will be checking out more of your videos in future..as the PT ages, it's going to need more fixing I'm sure...so thank you for sharing all this info!
Great video and exactly what is wrong with my 03 cr-v.
Glad to help.
On the left side of my car I getting a vibration on the axels from 40 mph to 60mph so is that ?
I've been searching what was my issue on my car. The brake aren't warped, no play in the wheel and good alignment. I just found out my issue with your video ! Thanks a lot !
awesome vid and really helped me understand what's going on. Thanks!
Glad it helped!
I have a 2002 Volvo S60 and notice the steering wheel wobbles at a low speed. Sometimes all I have to do is let off the break and the steering wheel will jolted to the left. I notice durning an oil change, grease around the boot and I’m thinking that’s the issue. I’m hoping it’s an easy fix to do.
Hey man I’ve been have a similar issue going on, Everything has been running fine until a couple weeks ago and I was hoping you could point me in the right direction for what my pick up is needing. Recently my pickup started to make
this humming/moaning/grinding sound almost like if there is rubbing going on. Which is ONLY when i go into reverse. It’s seems to come from the front end right below me, In drive she is perfect and It's for sure not tire rub. They were thinking it was the rubber on the cv boots getting rubbed. But there is no sign of distress or leaks.
Possible that it could squeek when you hit bumps as well? I have. 2009 honda civic ex coupe
This is really helpful, i have the same problem. The clunking noise is annoying.
Thank you
Thanks
i've had the same issue for a while on my subaru tribeca 2012. Changed the rotors thinking it was that, but nope. Gonna order my drivers side cv axle and do a self install.
Maby this is my problem. Thanx for a really good vid. I will check the drivechafts and also the kardan on mine👍
Good video. This helped me with the vibration on a buddy’s truck.
I have experienced vibration with braking when I had a bad axle and was sure I needed a new rotor, but I knew I needed a new axle more urgently. So I changed the axle first figuring I would get to the rotor another time. But the braking vibration was eliminated also after changing the axle!
Cool!
Thank you very much I didn't know inner CV can Course vibration your demonstration was so good 👌👌👍
Glad it was helpful!
This is the best vid I've watched 👍
Dude this video saved me! I thought my transmission was going out on my mew 2013 rav 4 and it was the cv causing it around 40 to 45 mph then started popping when I would back up or start off even turnin sometimes it would pop once or twice.
Man, I'm so glad to hear that!
@@BarboursAutoHelp I'm curious if maybe one of you guys can help, my 2010 jeep compass is making a clacking noise upon acceleration and deceleration. It sometimes even does it when shifting from park to drive or park to nuetral. Please note that is does not make the noise when revved in park or nuetral, but does when put into drive and foot on brake and revved just a little. Anything is much appreciated thanks guys!
@@phillippardo5712 idk if you figured it out but it sounds like u joints
I have a 2012 Audi Q5 that I bought about 4 months ago. From the day I drove it off the lot there was a problem with a very subtle vibration not visually noticeable but definitely felt through the entire car steering wheels/seats dashboard at all speeds from 30 km/h and upwards with no limit. The faster you drive the more noticeable it is. I have had this car in and out of about 15 shops/mechanics and I'm at the end of my rope and my patience. Ive had the wheels balanced/Road Forced/alignment multiple times along with other shops trying to diagnose unsuccessfully. I've been told everything from CV Joint to Struts and coils/mounts to control arms/tie rods and wheel bearings or tires feathering/cupping. Some shops have even said U joints or propeller shaft or torque converter. Everyone wants throw parts at the car and not one mechanic do I trust. The vibrations are making me so angry when I drive and I would rather do the repair myself but not sure if your video applies to non hybrid Quattro style german cars. It's more noticeable upon acceleration, but also there during coasting or braking just not as much. I'm desperate for answers
The info in the video is common to most vehicles that use CV style axles, to a degree. Have considered taking it to an Audi dealership to have it properly diagnosed?
I did take it to Audi, actually 2 different Audi's. One said front brakes and rotors so I had them replaced. $900. The other said it needs a road force balancing with proper adapter - donut shaped not spherical - and proper wheel alignment. $600. Its like burning money. I hate dealerships, I don't trust them and this car is well out of warranty. Audi wants another $700 just to diagnose and disassemble parts to inspect with no guarantee of finding or fixing problem. At what point do I put my foot down and say enough? If they actually change the CV joint/s it will mostly likely be in the range of $1500 - $3000. Its not even inflation its absurdity. A regular mechanic will still charge at least $1200.00 as per quote with OE parts if that was even the problem.
Sometimes that’s the road you have to go down. Sorry your going through this. It’s a tough pill to take. What ever you end up doing I hope it goes well with you. Good luck.
I'm gonna get under my own car in the morning as I just got home and it's freezing (northern USA Maine) because since yesterday I've noticed a pretty good vibration going on in the front end. Being I've had the same issue before but it was snow that did it last year it was frozen inside the back of the rim ( aluminum rims) these on my 06 G6 are steel and I see no snow from just looking we'll see in the am what I find. The vibration starts around 40 or so and worse at 60 so I kept it at 50mph on the way home from work. Definitely giving a thumbs up on the video. If you comment back I'll respond. I know I need ball joints, sway links excitedexc exc only had it on the road for about a 10k miles which I knew it needed those parts just wanted to make sure the trans or anything else is broken. This spring I plan to fix it but if it needs a cv I'll have to get that done in the next couple days.
Good luck to you. Keep us posted.
So I got a 2006 Buick rendezvous cxl and when do sharp turn got popping sound and now when driving while turn wheel it sounds like a wobble on passenger side and got vibration while idle and comes from the driver wheel so is it bc of this part going bad?
Thanks for such a good explanation brother! Subbed.
Thanks for the sub!
Very good info. Great work.
Glad it was helpful!
I have the same problem 2013 AWD Toyota sienna vibration when exlelerating. she shop change the right rear axle and it's doing the same thing so said it could be the iner bearing that the axcle goes into the diffencial .the put the van on the lift and exelarate and said the lift axcle was a bit wabbling so the change in but it didn't get any better.what do you suggest
hello mate, i have play in spot where drive shaft enters into gearbox, so after this big rusty part which is on left side in the video (i dont know how its called)...so when i take this big rusty part, and moving it up down, left right, i have play in spot where this rod enters gearbox...is that ok, and can be reasone because i have vibrations due to slow start from first gear or reverse???? thanks
I have a Hyundai i40 that has got this replaced 2 times now with only 40k miles on the clock. I just put on a brand new driveshaft again and the wobbling is almost gone but I can still feel it slightly under load sometimes. Seems like there is something else wrong with this car that makes the driveshaft wear way to fast. I talked to the previous owner and he said he had complained about this while the car was under warranty but Hyundai just said it was nothing. Probably the wheels or bad road surface. But now we see it was not ''nothing'' . It's something serious. A drive shaft should last MUCH longer than 20k miles.
Wheels and alignment are spot on. Got several very experienced mechanics to check everything and they don't really know what it can be. Motor mounts are ok to.
Starting to get quite desperate now 😣
I have a 2007 camryLe when I putt into drive or reverse it has rough idle, in neutral it runs smooth. I have checked all possible parts related to engine vibration, Could this be axsle related due to problems only apply in gear? thks 4 taking my question
Thank you BARBOUR'S AUTO HELP for this valuable info! Now i know why my VW POLO 2005 are vibrating like a crazy when accelerating from 30 to 60 mph. Thank you so much! You saved my money! Thank you so much!!! Now I exactly know what do I need to repair in garage.
Well, have you actually had it diagnosed? Just because your symptoms are similar doesn't necessarily mean this is your problem.
Good video, nicely explained and proves older cars ned checking. T
My wife's 2011 Rogue feels like the transmission slips two or three times in quick succession when you are coasting and then apply the accelerator to start climbing a slight incline. It does it between two and four times or so and feels like something is slipping and trying to lock-in to pull. I assumed her CVT transmission was going bad since they are known for that, but for some reason this particular year model has been excluded from all the complaints from the years before and after with cvts. I admit she hasn't changed the fluid, but when it was being serviced at the dealership I asked them to do it and since the fluid was kind of dark they recommended I didn't do it or it might make the problem worse. It has about 135,000 miles on it. They said there were no codes stored pertaining to the transmission when I was having them try to diagnose it. The problem really hasn't gotten much worse since we first noticed it about 7 months ago. I know we have a torn CV boot for the passenger side CV axle and it needs to be replaced. if it has begun to wear while the boot has been torn, is there any chance it could cause a symptom like I described?
Without experiencing it my self it's hard to say. From the sound of it that CV axle would just about have to be falling apart to make it do that. Id suggest having a tech diagnose it. You may be pleasantly surprised at what they say.
Yes! I’m having same issue and it’s being fixed now. Part messed up axle into front differential
My axle is screwed. Someone changed wheel baring and didn’t put it back on correctly
@@GermanShepherdDaphne So you say your Rogue is doing the same thing ours is doing? Acts like it's skipping or the transmission is slipping?
Excellent explanation.
Thanks
I had vibrations when hitting the brakes, but not the acceleration and my car had bad tie rod ends and poor alignment. My left front side is making a scrapping noise when turning left, stopping, or accelerating (might be the pads on the front end, wheel hub assembly, or brake shield scrapping against the rotor).
Thanks for sharing your experience.
I should have found you earlier, should I ge a new tri pod only ?
What causes frontend vibration at highway speeds only while coasting or very light throttle with out touching the breaks. There is a clunking also felt in steering wheel when light rockinh it right and left while sitting still . 2019 volkswagen atlas all wheel drive . 3.6 l. ( engine is in sideways ) outer tierods appear tight aswell as balljoints ..
Thank you..very helpful
Glad it was helpful!
Excellent thank you for your help
I have a problem with my polo VW. so when I drive more than 80kmph and when I release my foot from the acceleration pedal my steering shakes heavy and feels like it wants to throw me off-road to the left side. I have to take gear to neutral for it to slow down and then speed a bit after that when I take a turn a hear a hard knock then it drives a bit fine. but high speed it gives me that. rods, ball J, and stuff are fairly new.
Thank you!😊
i had my passenger CV axle replaced due to a leak in the boot. Then a few thousand miles later i started getting this vibration you talked about. I assumed there was some issue with the part, so my mechanic replaced the axle again. I thought this fixed the issue because the vibration went away. But then after a few thousand miles it started vibrating again. i don't know what to do next? It seems a new axle fixed the issue, but maybe the axle is wearing out very quickly? Any suggestions on what to do next? The vibration only occurs during acceleration between 45-60mph.
Great video bro. Tks
My 09 Subaru has been making clunking/squeaking sounds when driving at lower speeds, and when accelerating while going straight or after turning there is a vibration/sound for about 2 seconds every time. Could this be my cv axle or boot? Do struts need to be replaced if the axle is damaged?
Well explained 😊
Thank you 🙂
Could it also feel like warped rotors when coming to a slow stop? I have an intermittent feeling of what I thought was warped rotors but I would think rotors would happen at every stop.
Excellent video. Thanks
I just don't understand how some axles can appear fine on the bench but actually be the problem, case in point 2015 RDX, severe shimmy felt in the steering wheel and bad enough to shake your fillings out, took a chance and sourced two cheap Chinese axles without any balancing rubbers on the shaft and visibly had more slop in the tripods than the oem and it fixed the problem. Nothing surprises me anymore. If these cheap knock offs last a year Ill be impressed.
I replaced the drivers side cv axle today on my 2008 Toyota yaris. The boot had a big rip and all the grease was gone. this was at the wheel side boot. Naturally the bearing was very worn.It never made the much talked about "clicking" sound when making hard left or right turns in a parking lot. Oddly it only made a thump, thump sound like a tire that had bump in the tread. Hope this helps somebody.
Yeah I think mine is the inner joint. There's a very slight click I hear from time to time. But my problem is vibration when accelerating to about 30-40 mph and much more at 60-70 mph.
Same bro
What was it ? I’m having the same issue
@@juliomarenco4411 before you do the cv axels check your tie rods. It still shook after I replaced the axels, motot mounts, rotors, brakes and ball joints. After all that it was my $40 tie rods that were bad and caused the shaking.
@@sa1nt_john.v1 will do thanks, would it vibrate a lot ? From 0-40 it’s normal but after the fast I go the more it vibrates and goes away when I go back to around 30mph
@@sa1nt_john.v1 I just don’t want to be changing parts that don’t need to be changed 😂 already balanced the tires and it wasn’t it
Can a worn cv joint cause damage to wheel bearings, transaxle, suspension parts etc?
Great info. Thank you. Anyway I do have a " clicking noise but only after new CV axles were replaced..help!
Who installed them?
Hi thanks for the video. Anything else that would cause a shimmy when accelerating?
Yes, I have a link to a video down in the description that goes over this a bit. Check it out.
Thank you
Thks for the educative video. my question is , apart from the vibration does a bad cv axle make a grinding noise ?
I've not heard a grinding noise cause by a half shaft yet.
My Honda civic has been vibrating when pressing the brakes. Mechanic said it was the rotors. I replaced them and the vibration went away, but came back again. Now while going down the hill my car steering wheel vibrates quite a lot. Yesterday I checked the inner passenger CV axle and it has an up and down play. I suspect this will be the issue with the vibration while pressing the brakes.
Will a cv axle also slip when you come from a dead stop with no check engine light on the transmission
I just changed the CV axle but I still get this vibration at 50km/hr. Also, I feel the vibration more in the middle of the car. Also, note that I have removed the propeller. What could possibly be the cause of the vibration
Like if it missed 1st gear but the transmission is great ?
Good video thanks
I had my cv axle replaced by a shop and then my car started vibrating when picking up speed from a stop. I went back to the shop to complain about the issue they said they will fix it. And still the vibration has not gone. All of this started happening after I got my CV axle replaced
i have a 2018 camry se.. when im driving at high speeds and start guiding left my can starts vibrating. what could it be? its starting to get worst!
Can a bad cv axle cause you to feel a vibration in the gas pedal when going over bumps? I also have the vibration on acceleration as well, but I only feel it in the gas pedal.
I've replaced all my engine mounts, and tire rods.
I suppose it's possible. A lot of things could cause that by the way.
I'm getting it on both acceleration and deceleration, but only on highway conditions. 1997 Acura CL 3.0
I knew the CV axel was bad due to the clicking when turning, but I thought the vibration was due to the tires. Put on the new tires (old ones were old and dangerous as well), vibration is still there.
Axle is next I suppose.
I have an Acura CL 97 too.
After replacing tie rods, ball joints, wheel bearing, and tires w/ alignment.
I was getting a vibration that would pull the steering wheel to the right...Then disappear.
I suspect my front passenger axle is bad, as well.
Cliffjumper Turns out it was a bad caliper. It was locked up and it would cause one brake rotor to warp when overheated and vibrate. It needed tires, axels, and brake system work, but most of all it was the brakes.
I'm replacing the drivers side CV axel today. The part was 200 bucks and I'll install it myself. The job is worth 400-450 in Australian shops. I'll do it myself.
Thanks man, got this issue on my Sentra, the steering wheel also shakes when I brake, and I I believe it’s getting worse as the cv axel seems to get worse, I changed the brakes rotors and made sure the guide pins on the caliper were cleaned and greased, what do you think? I know you said the vibration is upon acceleration typically in non hybrid cars but it really seems like the steering wheel shake gas been caused by the cv axel going bad, they seem to worsen together, but who knows sometimes with cars, I’m going to change the cv axels anyhow, I’ll let you know if it goes away.
Hey, sorry I didn't get to you until now. I've got a decent video on diagnosing vibrations upon acceleration. It may or may not help you but I believe its got some good info for you. Here is a link: czcams.com/video/OyXtBqExkec/video.html
I think im having the same issue with my sentra!
So did you figure this out? My 07 Camry is having vibrations when deceleration..any data points would be appreciated
Thanks for the info man, I just got my 2007 Lexus GS 350 AWD go through two Axle at my local Meineke Care Center wondering if it's my transmission going need your opinion?
What was wrong with the axles?
@@BarboursAutoHelp I was driving on the highway with my family for adults and a baby I went over a bridge quick dip and the axle broke in half at the time I assumed it was a flat tire but visually the axle was in two pieces passenger side.
I went to my Meineke repair center and they said to me that the axle needs to be replaced and so they did on arrival to pick up the car I asked him if there's anything else wrong with the vehicle and they said I'm good to go I took it for a test drive out of the parking lot and the axle fell out again I brought it back to them and they replace that axle with another and the same thing happened I'm trying to figure out if it's the transmission that's spitting the axle out
I've seen this happen a long time ago but not on a Lexus. The vehicle had a bad engine or transmission mount. It was causing the axle to stretch too much. I'd give the mounts a good check. Not saying that's it but it could be. Let me know what you find.
@@watchmegetoutoftheshelter7690 how much you paid for the repair
I had the same vibrational problem with my Jeep Grand Cherokee. Vibration upon acceleration. I changed the CV axle but it wasn't that. My mecanic fixed the problem in changing the transmission supports that was disaggregated.
What do you mean by transmission supports? What are those?
@@wilsonemeka1833 It's written 'Isolator' on my invoice but my mecanic called it 'transmission support'. The right term is probably 'transmission Mount Isolator'.
Thank you!
Is the noise similar to wheel bearing noise and slight vibration
I have lots of vibration on my steering wheel when I hit 110kmph onwards. I have done the balancing and alignment rotate the rear wheel to the front the problem persist. Could it be the CV axle joint as you mentioned?
Possibly.
The boot seems to be ok. So what would cause the grease to dry up like that?
Having simulair problem with my VW Golf 1.6 TDI 2011 DSG-7 Variant, since i got her (1,5 yr ago) could not get a balance on my front wheels, not even with new wheels and tires, at +/- 70-80 kmh and 130-140kmh.
Its was thought my drive-shaft gearbox bearings or/and flywheel were the problem at first, now the right CV drive-shaft is the suspect.
A mth or 2 ago the front wheel bearings were changed but the problem stayed, as the vibration, and around that time my r-front disk started to "cry" when driving, cold and warm getting worse km by km...
Atm she is in the workshop again, and today i should hear what the problem really is, and i can only hope its the CV drive-shaft...
Let us know when you find out.
@@BarboursAutoHelp It was the passengers side CV joint, totally worn , actually very like the one on this video.
The gearbox is ok, wheel bearings to, so were changing both CV joints and both front brake disks, as addition have to change 2 worn engine mounts...
The noise (bearing grinding sound) was only heard when going into a left turn, thats why at first the wheel bearings were suspect...but after replacing those, the noise stayed.
Dont have him back yet, parts being replaced as i write this.
Will let you guys know if this solved the grinding bearing noise in my front train, when i get him back and make a probe-drive.
@@satnikray you never told anyone
Clicking at low speeds. A humming drone at faster speeds. I was worried it might be one of the cv's but couldn't tell left, right, inner, or outer.... until I put the car up and went around and tried the individual joints. The clicking while turning at low speeds became more and more noticable so it was really starting to worry me. The inner right side cv has turned out to be the culprit. Have not noticed vibration on acceleration yet. Really wondering when the problem will become a regretful roadside event. $$$$
Should you replace both if only one is bad?
ive had a problem with a lil clunk when I'm. going down my drive way.... i also noticed the vibration when going bout 50 or so i let off.. then gas it again and its good... what im asking is this... would the cv axel mabey making a clunking noise too...( its the same sound as when u shifted the axel in the video)
Its possible but I wouldn't guess at this. It's probably best to have a tech look at it to make sure if you aren't mechanically savy.
Did you ever find out what was making the noise
Hello, I own a 2011 Nissan Rogue with the CVT transmission in it, I know these things are known to have transmission problems! Driving between 20 and 40 mph I notice vibration, past that the vibration decreases significantly.
The other day I noticed a CV joint that’s leaking and thought that maybe the issue, but also the transmission fluid looks kind of dirty. I want to sell the thing, but would like to fix it first if possible. Let’s say I replaced the bad CV joint and doesn’t fix the problem. Could dirty transmission Fluid cause vibration issues? Hopefully I get an answer soon. Thanks
I'm really not that familiar with that transmission. I do know that putting the wrong fluid in it will cause problems. But as far as your questions... I don't know. I hope you find the help you are looking for.
I have a 2010 Ford Focus SE with about 128,000 miles on it. I’ve been replacing some older parts based on tire wear patterns and now have new issues. I replaced the rear drums, rear shocks, put new tires on the back from cupping. Front tires are 11 months old. I replaced the front strut and spring assembly, new brake pads and rotors, I also put 8 new wheel studs on the front and got it aligned. The right CV axle was replaced 9/8/18. I still have front end vibration from 0-20mph. It is amplified when turning right and accelerating as well. Does the driver’s side CV need replacing? What else could it be?
TL; DR
Vibration from 0-20. Can’t locate the problem. Thank you!!
I have a link to another video that may help you out in the description of this video. That being said, paying to have an experienced technician diagnose your vehicle may not be a bad idea. It could even save you money by not paying for parts not needed.
Hi, I have hamming/vibrating noise coming from passenger side, when I'm sitting in driver seat. It's like something is spinning in uneven way. Zero up to 100 km/h nothing. It starts at 100 km/h, peaks at 110 km/h and disappears at 130 km/h. That sound is definitely connected only to car speed and not to engine rpms. Its louder when pressing gas pedal/accelerating, but it does not disappear completely when not accelerating. Its not engine, because that sound is same when in neutral or any other gear. Its not unbalances tire or wheel. I tried many different wheels. Ball joints are perfectly firm. Sound does not change when braking. There is no play in wheel in any direction. I've already changed both sides bearings and inner transmission side axl homokinetic joint since I found this joint could cause this sound. No rubber boots were damaged. All looking good as new. I used high quality replacement and nothing helped. Axl itself looks perfectly fine. I also tried clicking test when turning full left, full right and accelerating. Nothing, there is no clicking sound. No I dont know, this sound started just like that 4 month ago and does not get better or worse. Still the same. I didnt hit pot hole or anything. I'm driving quality highways. My car is vw golf 6 with only 110 000 km in very good shape. Now I plan to change outer wheel side homokinetic joint, but I dont believe it will fix it. I will be glad for all ideas and suggestions.
Gosh this sounds like what Im going through. Endless fixes and replacements and problem still persists. CV Axel is my next guess but these guesses are getting expensive. What was your final resolution?
1 to 2 mm is a lot in a vehicle part clearance specs, most of the parts are calculated in super tight little spaces like intake valve clearance, only around .18mm to .23mm in my car, which means there is .05mm difference allowed.
Ok, so how does that relate to the video? I'm sure you have a good point, I'm just slow at connecting the dots. What are saying?
Good explanation. Thx. I just had this exact issue on my 06 Odyssey. It felt like vibration was coming from right, front. Changed both CV axles and it turned out to be the driver's side.
Good job!
Can it come off or break? I drive alot on the freeway and it’s getting worse now
Great video!
Is it possible that free play in inner shaft only be felt with axle out of the car? My car has the vibration during acelaration symptom but axles feel very solid and boots are intact. Thank you in advance!
Might need some balancing on wheel or tie rods or ball joints
I have a 2010 Honda CR-V AWD. There is a howling noise that also vibrates coming from the rear diff. Area, only at constant speed of 40 mph or so. I got under the car and I can see the boot for the drivers side CRV axel (rear) is torn and had grease on the out side. Could the cv axle be making the howling sound? Thank you
I've never heard an axle making a howling noise.
Hi, I have a question on my 99 Buick supercharged riviera w/ 70k. Aside from a vibration from 65-70 mph and some banging when I make a turn @ slow speed while stepping on the gas, will a bad CV axle make a binding sound when I shift from drive to reverse and turn the wheel to back into a parking space? Control arms & all bushings are new. Tires were road balanced. I have new axle's ready to be installed once my mechanic returns from vacation. I hope the noise is from the axle's and not the rack or the p/s pump. Ty for any advice.
Hard to say. But I guess it's possible.
@@BarboursAutoHelp Thank you for the reply and I guess I'll find out soon enough when I install the axles. Happy holidays.
You too! Thanks.
I had a grinding that sounded a lot like a wheel bearing problem but upon closer inspection it turns out the grinding noise is coming from the upper cv axle joint. I haven't found any information on this yet. A constant grinding coming from the upper cv axle that is. If you have the time and any information on this it would be greatly appreciated. I understand if you cant reply. Thank you a ton for your videos they have helped me tremendously.
I had the same noise I replaced all 4 wheel bearing a in the end still noise similar to wheel bearing. Did you fix your noise if so what was it.
@@geraouttahermaeens1075turned out to be the transmission
@@jasonmccorkle8760 Was it AT differential shaft bearings? I changed both front wheel bearings but I still hear wheel bearing noise, sort of whirring noise, not constant grinding, and with slight vibration, mostly at speeds above 40mph. It seems to come from passenger side. I am not sure if it is from inner CV joint, CV axle carrier bearing, or AT differential. Boots on axle are in good shape. So it makes me hesitate to replace the whole axle.
@@jasonmccorkle8760
Did you fix the problem because I think mine is the transmission too but I'm taking the hub bearing & cv axle off now.
Loud growling hum at 20 mph + apparently coming from the driver side.
