ham4864 Posted November 19, 2013 Report Share Posted November 19, 2013 Its making noise when i drive, so i took the wheel off to inspect it and noticed to cv boot is split. Can i just replace the boot or is the axle done. Car was purchased for a police auction for $400 bucks So far i've noticed Need new power antenna, muffler is rotted out and the axle problem. 2009 bmw 5 series Head Unit Stock Amplifier-JL Audio JX 360/4 Processor- Audiocontrol LC6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
poorfish88 Posted November 19, 2013 Report Share Posted November 19, 2013 inner or outer cv joint is going bad. Once they get dirt in them, its bad news as far as I know. Is it a clicking noise when you turn? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hdorre Posted November 19, 2013 Report Share Posted November 19, 2013 With 3000GTs and Stealths at least, you want to replace the whole halfshaft. Shit gets in the cv boot, and it goes downhill from there.

ham4864 Posted November 19, 2013 Author Report Share Posted November 19, 2013 yea it the whole thing its not clicking when i turn but its grinding where the boot is ripped. Its recommended to replace the whole axle. Plus i don't know how long the previous owner rode around like that. Where can i get good quality axles from. 2009 bmw 5 series Head Unit Stock Amplifier-JL Audio JX 360/4 Processor- Audiocontrol LC6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mbdblue Posted November 20, 2013 Report Share Posted November 20, 2013 Axles I've only bought online....Right around 60-80 bucks a piece. Like fox said, easy job if you can loosen your axle nut Autopartswarehouse, partsgeek, rockauto will probably all have it. I've lost pretty much any kind of respect I had left for Autozone, advanced, and pep boys.
