Is it dangerous to keep driving with a clicking outer joint?

A worn joint will eventually fail completely, which can cause loss of drive or a serious vibration — repair before it worsens.

What causes this joint to wear?

Most commonly a torn dust boot letting dirt and water contaminate the joint, though age and mileage alone can also wear the joint over a long service life.

What is the joint made of?

Hardened steel components (bearings and races) packed with specialised CV joint grease.

What is this part and why does it matter?

Frequently asked questions

The outer joint has to work at a sharp angle to allow steering — a worn joint’s play becomes most noticeable and audible under that combination of angle and torque.

I ordered a Heater Blower Motor Resistor for a Toyota Avensis. Delivery took eight days from Latvia to Ireland. I installed it, and everything works perfectly. I wish this company success.

No complaints about Evro Trans itself, everything's fine. But the delivery..... It felt like the order was being carried by turtles. 4 days from Riga to Daugavpils. Judging by the tracking, the parcel just sat somewhere behind a shed for 3 days, then they found it and delivered it the next day. I think that's why I won't be ordering there again.

Bought a front fender for my car. I liked it! After payment they sent more than 20 photos of the problem areas, and it was packed very securely - took a while to unwrap.
