Renault CV joint replacement
Does My Renault Need a CV Joint Replacement?
Constant velocity (CV) joints are found in front-wheel-drive and occasionally in RWD and 4WD’s. A CV joint is part of the driveshaft or half shaft; it transfers power from the transmission to the driveshaft axle and then to the wheels to provide motion for your Renault.
Wherever there are moving parts there is the likelihood of wear and failure over time. A CV joint doesn’t have a specific failure date, many factors are at play when looking at the lifespan of a CV joint. The most important factor is the grease filled CV boot which surrounds the joint and repels dirt and water from the moving balls/bearings in the CV joint. CV boots are made of plastic or rubber, are accordion-shaped and can be easily damaged. A small split in a CV boot might not seem like a big deal but eventually it can create one for your Renault.
Expect to be paying in the hundreds for a Renault CV joint replacement. The part alone can cost in the hundreds and then there is the labour to remove and install the part, this isn’t a quick job. Labour time to fit the CV joint will depend on the model of your Renault.
If a CV joint was to fail completely while driving it would cause the Renault to pull to one side or completely stop, as power is no longer reaching that adjoining wheel. The great thing with CV joints is that they usually let you know before they completely go.
