Re: CV Axle testing and replacement
Tires can do some weird things...I bought a '98 Cavalier CPO from a Chevy dealer and it was perfect except for a very profound grinding feel as you came to a stop...felt like the front pads were metal to metal or a hub was falling apart, very disturbing. A condition of the sale was that they repair it, and when they took it in the shop the brakes and front end were fine, the front tires had some pretty harmless-looking feathering on the inside edges.
They replaced the two front tires and it was fine. The car never feathered those, so I kind of suspect they might have swapped those tires from another car before putting it up for sale, and maybe got the rotation going opposite of how they ran on the other vehicle, so it was really rumbling on the feathering when it put the car's weight to the front while braking.
