Hey all, New to the forum. I have a 2000 Mk4 Golf 2.0 Manmual Transmission. I has started making a clunking noise when accelerating and decellerating and now most of the time. I thought it was a CV Joint and replace to right axle which had a torn boot. The noise and vibration was still there. I...

My 2012 CC started making a "groaning" noise when Im turning the wheel to park. Not when moving so I don't believe it a CV joint. Could this be the upper strut mount bushing?

I'm in no rush, but I want to change an outer cv in my 1981 scirocco. Not going the whole axle route seems to be against the grain;, but I kept on searching and found a cv on ebay that says mk1's up to 1980. The part number is 171407311d. I'm tempted to buy it anyway and just find out...

Hey everyone, I have an 09 Rabbit 5 speed manual with 95k on it. Within the last couple of months the engine/transmission - Something in the front of the car - has begun to sound rougher and rougher. There is a slight knocking noise combined with a high pitched drone(Best way I can describe it)...

Volkswagen originally provides equal weight drive shafts for the MK1 vehicles with manual transmissions (about 10# each). The longer passenger shaft is hollowed out so the weights will be equal on both sides. Some of the "bargain" axle assemblies have solid shafts on the passenger side. While...

I'll preface this post by saying my car is 2008 Rabbit 2.5L with the 5 speed manual. Car has 135,000+ miles on it. Before experiencing this noise I had noticed another humming noise and vibrations coming from the front end which was only experience between 60-65 mph. I tried rotating and...

So I have a new CV Shaft -- current inner boot is torn and causing some rather discomforting wobble/shimmying under acceleration. Figured replacing the whole thing is just prudent since it all needs to come out anyhow. I am trying to loosen the axle bolt at the wheel and have thus far snapped 2...

Had my dealer replace my original 235/35-19 tires with the optional 235/45-17 size. (Chewed up 3 tires on NJ roads. The replacement was done gratis, at my request, to avoid giving my money back after having the radio/navi replaced three times). My issue is the stock 35 series tires have a...

Morning everyone I purchased a 2012 Tiguan 2.0l SE 4Motion 2 weeks ago from a main dealer with 37k miles on the clock. It still is under the manufacturers warranty. At 75-85 mph there was a steering wheel wobble but I could drive through it. The dealership at first said it was a 4 wheel drive...

I have a howling sound coming from my driveline. Am I correct in assuming that it is the right side CV joint if it get worse when I turn to the left? Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

2012 CC Lux PLus, auto xmsn, with 64K miles: At low speeds, >30mph, I hear a low rhythmic rumble from the front wheels at tire rotations speed. I feel that I have eliminated the tires, as rotating them had no effect. The noise does not change when turning left or right and is not apparent at...

When making sharp turns my 06 Rabbit with 164,000 is making kind of a cracking or clicking noise. I've been told it was a bad CV joint but I wanted to see if anyone could confirm this before I replace anything. Seems like it could be an easy fix. Any advice will be appreciated. Sent from my...

I have an 84 Rabbit Diesel Pickup, manual trans. I broke my driver-side CV joint spinning my wheels trying to get unstuck from the snow. I found that the bearing cage had broken and fallen out onto the driveway. I'm guessing it's not a good idea to try and just replace the bearing cage, and I...
