Checking the sealing cuffs of the drive shafts
To check the shafts, you need to do the following:
- lift the front of the car and place it on supports;
- turn the wheel and check both rubber shaft seals for cracks;
- check the strength of the installation of the tape holders;
- check for grease on the sealing cuff.
Diagnosis of wheel drive shaft faults
Noises occurring in the transmission indicate the following faults:
- rhythmic beating when pressing the clutch pedal (may change when turning the steering wheel) indicates a malfunction on the part of the corresponding wheel;
- if the steering wheel vibrates when the wheels are turned, then the outer joint is probably damaged;
- a crackling sound when accelerating on turns indicates a fault in the wheel drive shaft.
