Does the clicking sound closer together as you speed up? My accord would make clicking noises while turning, and if I accelerated while turning the clicking would get faster and faster paced as I sped up. I had to replace the driver side axel with that one. I can't remember which way I was turning to cause it to click though.
I'd just get under the car and look at the CV boots themselves. A cracked boot or leaking grease would tell you that the CV joint may be the problem. I also believe that once you hear the clicking, some damage to the CV joint has already been done. That's why I replaced the axel on my accord and not just replaced the boot. It was only $70 for the axel after I gave them the core back.

just get a rebuilt axle for 60 or so from your parts store. By the time you pay 30 for the boot and rebuild it yourself its well worth just buying a rebuilt axle.

200!!!! you're out of your mind, i wouldn't pay more than 70 each. I just put both in my car for about 126 bucks and that has a lifetime replacement as well.

The fluff in the price would also include installation....most people can't change theyre oil let alone remove and install 2 axles. Yes I am out of my mind...thank you for noticing

ahhh gotcha I thought we were talking about the price of axles only. Plus pepboys threw me off, I always forget they do work as well as sell parts.
