Steering,front axle,rotors...What is it?!?!
Ok, the past two weeks I noticed when I'm making a sharp turn, i hear that annoying noise that sound like a typical axle wearing noise. Tonight it did it and I hit the brakes and held the steering wheel all the way to the right to just take a listen and the steering wheel kept jerking back and forth(left to right). What could it be? Do the axles need greasing? Could it be something like my rotors or steering? I have no clue but something needs to be fixed. Help me...

Re: Steering,front axle,rotors...What is it?!?!
Check the condition of the cv boots they can break then all the grease leaks out and metal on metal = noise + vibration/ you annoyed = new cv shaft.

Re: Steering,front axle,rotors...What is it?!?!
What exactly is a CV shaft and is it hard to fix? Expensive to get fixed?

Re: Steering,front axle,rotors...What is it?!?!
It's the official name for the axles in the front. They aren't too much to fix.

Re: Steering,front axle,rotors...What is it?!?!

Thanks for the help.

Re: Steering,front axle,rotors...What is it?!?!
No idea how much at a mechanic, to do it yourself would be about $100 for each side. It's not too bad to do yourself as long as you have air tools and some patience.

Re: Steering,front axle,rotors...What is it?!?!
Turns out there is a chunk missing from my p/s belt. When I turn my steering wheel, the pullley was smacking around like crazy making noises. Fixing it tomorrow, better than new axle!
Thanks for the help EZ.
