CV joints on a Daihatsu Charade?

Any advice appreciated on how to change these joints. Do I need special tools or will the ordinary ones do? They are making a lot of noise turning corners and need to be replaced. Thanks

As much as I like to see people do their own maintenance, this particular job requires a professional and some specialty tools.

Not sure what tools you'll need for your car. Have you got a haynes manual?
WOW!! you have one of those??????



i have literally only seen 2 of those in my entire life.. i remember specifically making fun of it because it was called charade....



%26quot;maybe it's a car.... maybe it's a rollerskate with a motor%26quot;



sorry... i digress.



So i assume you actually FOUND parts for it? if you need a special tool, it's pretty unlikely you'll find it..



i'm sorry i can't provide legitimate help, i was just so surprised to see that you had a charade.. i wish you luck though :)

We have a 97 Nissan Quest that makes a sound when you turn to the right or left.?

The dealer said the cv joints had just been changed. Does anyone have any ideas? Is it safe to be driving? This has been happening for the past couple of months. Thanks.

if the dealer said they'd just ben changed why would there be any noise at all? I'd double check their work and have them diaganose what they did or didn't do... there should be no noise if they just replaced them in my book...

It's sounds like CV joints. You can look under the front end at the rubber boots where the CV joints connect. If the boots look old and torn, the CV joints have not been replaced and probably need to be.

Something you listed was done incorrectly; possibly the bearings or cv joint. Take it back to the same shop and don't let them charge you for fixing it again!

with all that being done and said you could have gotten a bad part,with the production of today's parts its real easy to get a bad one of anything,all you can do is start checking whats been done to it,it may turn out to be one of the parts you bought,because they were new doesn't mean the wont have a defect in them,it happens all the time,good luck on it.

I just need to have the CV boots (outer) replaced on my 1994 jeep I am selling?

I don't need the joints changed just the boots, I see parts are about 20 dollars what should the labor cost/time be?

do it your self. if you take it to the shop it'll cost about 60 bucks, per wheel depending on the shop.

When i turn in my car it creeks what cud it be the cv joints are due to be changed!!?

Worn wheel bearings usually cause excessive wheel bearing play, or cause a growling or knocking noise to occur at wheel speeds. In addition, worn front wheel bearings can cause excess pad-to-rotor clearance and a resulting low brake pedal on disc brake vehicles.



Excess bearing play can be detected by grasping the wheel at the 12 and 6 oclock positions and tipping it in and out. In general, sealed, ball and tapered roller wheel bearings shouldnt have more than 0.005 end play.



Also check your CV joints-



Wear in the outer joint usually shows up as vibration at certain speeds, a bit like the vibration caused by an unbalanced wheel. To determine if the joint is worn, a driver should find a big empty parking lot and drive the car slowly in tight circles, left and right. Worn joints will make a rhythmic clicking or cracking noise. Wear in the inner joints shows up as a %26quot;clunk%26quot; or %26quot;pop%26quot; when applying power or, if severe, when lifting off the throttle.



Partial seizure causes a strange %26quot;pattering%26quot; sensation through the suspension. It is caused by the joint overheating, which in turn is usually caused by the outer joint gaiter/boot having split, allowing the joint to throw out its grease. If caught in time, one can clean the joint carefully, repack with grease and replace the gaiter/boot. Kits which include the grease, gaiter/boot, and retaining clips are available from most automotive manufacturers. Some universal gaiters/boots are split lengthwise enabling

You might try greasing all of the serviceable joints and see if the noise goes away.

Grinding car problems?

When turning to the right while accelerating the car makes a grinding noise on the front passenger side. This does not happen when breaking and turning or when not accelerating. Had cv joint changed. no difference

check the clearance from the wheel to the fender and the bushings on the lower controle arm

next guess is wheel bearing

sounds like a wheel bearing
THAT'S THE BRAKES. %26quot;breaks%26quot;.
wheel bearing. you will have to change both sides though. to be certain jack the car up and rock the wheel top and bottom. it shouldn't move if it moves you will get a slight thud
You need to have the following checked:-

1) Wheel bearing clearances.

2) Brake pads and discs condition.

3) Shock absorber condition.

Ja.
It could be the springs on your breaks are week, when a mechanic looks at them they will look fine just not work properly...some times when you get a break job the mechanic uses the old springs, not a good idea...
