Rear Cv Axle Clicking. The cv joints at the front wheels feature a spherical housing, which allows for up to 45 degrees turning, while those at the differentials and rear wheels are planar, allowing for only a small angular variation and a few millimeters extension or retraction. There are signs to look for when determining when to schedule an inspection of your vehicle’s front axle, rear axle, cv joints, and driveshaft components.
A cv axle that is excessively worn can produce a clunking or clicking noise when shifting between decelerating and accelerating. Benefits of axle, cv joint & driveshaft repair. Contact our subaru service department for advice.
My old 2013 s60 had similar issue.
When i put it all back together i hear a clicking noise from the rear only when i'm turning. Clunking or clicking noises are signs that a cv joint needs replacement. When a cv axle goes bad you will hear clicking when you steer. My car exhibited 'classic' signs of the clicking axle problem.
