so i have been experiencing a not so consistent clicking sound which sounds like it is coming from the driver side wheel well while driving. however it ranges in how bad it is and sometimes doesn't do it at all. I just read a post where someone said his Cv boots were bad and caused his axle to be bad. Could this be my problem. and if it is where do i find the CV boots and can i diagnose the problem my self?

Farily easy to diagnose. Just jack up the car (might not even have to do this) on the side that has the problem. If your CV boot is bad it will be torn somewhere. Easiest way to find out is by just looking because if it is torn, there will be grease EVERYWHERE. Also, if your boot is torn, it is probably too late to just repair the boot and you will need a new axle. This is why you get the clicking noise, i'm assuming when you turn? (might wanna try this). --------------------  |
