any of you honda atvs or utvs that have a rubber boot on the drive shaft can get water in the engine oil through the smallest of cracks, tears, or holes in the boot.

What would cause a squeak when turning the steering wheel to the right?
One or both of your cv boot/s is torn or has a hole in it. the cv boot keeps the drive shaft lubricated and dirt/debris out of the gears that turn your wheels. chances are that you might already need a new half shaft.
What causes a knocking sound when turning the wheel?
If the "knocking" sound is a heavy clicking sound when turning, and if the vehicle is front-wheel-drive, you probably have a worn CV joint, often referred to as a half-shaft. This problem can sometimes be temporarily corrected by repacking the joint with grease and replacing the rubber CV boot which is probably torn. Usually, however, it is best to replace the shaft since it is necessary to remove it to replace the boot anyway, and this constitutes most of the labor. On the other hand you can do a bit of a cheat by cutting off the old boot, repacking the joint with grease, and re-covering it with a special split boot that does not require removal of the shaft. A CV joint (Constant Velocity Joint) is the equivalent of a Universal Joint in the drive shaft of a rear-wheel-drive vehicle.

How do you know your cv boot is bad on a 1994 Nissan Quest will it drive if it goes out?
the boot you can tell with a visual inspection. there should be no tears in the boot. the boot is there to keep grease in and debris out. if the boot is torn and most of the grease is gone you probably should replace the shaft. if you catch it soon enough though you can just replace the boot which is much cheaper.
How long can you drive on a leaking CV boot?
the boot is actually a cover to keep out dirt you could go awhile but you really should replace it as soon as possible to keep the cv joint from being ruinrd by the dust and dirt
