    CV axles

    I want to know does cv axles last a short while in hondas? i just replaced my axles on both sides, driver and passenger side and it seems when i turn the wheel to the right, i get this clicking noise. could the right axle be shot already. i've just bought new axles 3 months ago. i always here clicking noise when i make a right turn. could it be something else other than the axle? please help.

    thanx

    If it was remanufactured it may have been defective from the start.

    Remember they are just someones broken ones that they fixed. Sometimes they don't do a good enough job

    Check the boots they could have broken already and caused your axle to go bad.

    i was about to say they may be defective.
    i had that problem. i bought mine from autozone with lifetime warranty. it didn't cost me anything to replace them.

    I just replaced my originals with remanufactured units. They were not that bad, but after 208,000 miles I didn't want to mess with just slapping new boots on them.

    I have kragens reman's on my car that only seem to last three months before I take them off and replace them. I am really thinking about getting honda axles. just tired of all the work to save a couple of bucks.
