So i have had a clicking coming from the front left hand side or passenger side for a few months now
and today a real bad grinding noise is now coming from the front so it looks like the cv joint is collapsing now
my mate is going to have a look tomorrow but he recommends i replace the whole drive shaft
so i am not that happy today as this will cost me big time

Hi all.

Vauxhall did a health check on my GTC today and all good except both my CV joints are split. Unfortunately they said they won't be covered under warranty because it's a result of the Eibach's I've fitted.

Dealer fob-off or have they got a point?

Manager's calling me tomorrow, and i've done a quick bit of research myself and from what I understand the lowered springs cause the joint to sit at a different angle?

Any thoughts? Thanks all.

Evening guys and dolls.

Going to get the J in the garage asap but with the time of year... It will be a couple of days.

So randomly, it starting knocking from the offside drive wheel tonight. When I say knock, this is like someone with a little hammer hitting at a regular interval, not a tick or a click.

It is into happening when it's in gear and under load accelerating.

I'm thinking drive shaft/CV combo?
