It could make a grinding type noise when moving slow. A "whirrr" type whine when moving faster. The grinding noise may change to a clunking noise when turning the wheel. Any of these noises means "fix me now or else."

If there was a problem with the cv joint on a 98 Chevy Cavalier what type of noise would it make and what would it cost to repair or replace it?

In my experience, the noise would be a rapid high pitched clunk when turning the wheel in either direction. It would depend on if it was the outer or inner joint, most likely you will expect to pay over $100 at a decent mechanic. The cv joint itself is probably around $25-$30.

Bad inner CV joint?


94 tercel Inner cv joint or outer makes what noise?

The outer joint. The turning stress is placed on the outer joint which causes divots to develop in the windows that that house the balls causing a clicking noise that usually is worse on a turn. The inner joint only has to account for suspension travel and is a different/ sliding design. Take your car to a empty shopping mall lot. Go about 20 miles per our and make a fairly sharp right or left turn. There will be a clicking noise if the cv is going. Also check for Cv boot leaks or cracks.

Can a cracked CV boot cause noise in the CV joint?

A cracked boot itself won't cause a CV joint to make noise. However, a cracked boot WILL cause the grease to be slung out and allow dirt to enter the CV joint. And a contaminated CV joint that is starved for lubricant WILL eventually start to make noise.

Yes it does if the car is moving. Because the CV joint is part of the axil if the car is moving the bad CV joint will be moving too. or No it will not make noise if the car is in neutral and the car is not moving.

Sounds like you might have a Constant Velocity Joint (CV joint) going bad.


What happens when you have a bad inner cv joint?

A bad inner CV joint will make a clicking noise when making sharper turns on the outside wheel. The clicking noise is from the ball bearing inside of the joint being loose and rattling around inside the race. I recommend getting it replaced ASAP due to the fact that if it fails it will wreak havoc and you could possible lock up the wheel it is bad on and force you to a halting stop or even worse, causing you to lose control and crash. It is always a better bet to be safer than sorry.
