donno.. tats why i'd like to know wat else will put more stress on the CVs..

around $800? :( ....

no my point is...if u can put the car back to a condition where, to them it will seem as if u havent voided (??) ur warranty then go ahead and do so - that way u can get them to fix the problem.....free.

but then again they will probably figure it out anyway.

stop talking of this stuff guys... you never know WHO is reading here ( BTW several peopel who work for Honda actual browse these forums too...)

Back to the problem at hand...yes , as i said , since you DUMPED your car it WILL wear out your CV joints faster than normal. Get it checked by a professional asap before they come apart while driving.

Dont complain when you are the one at fault :)

thanks for the help ben :)

i can see why this would happen on a 2004 model car if you have power stearing .
see what your sayin about turning the wheel while your car is not moving is a big no no if you have power stearing
could be your cv joints could also be your tierod end
jack your car up so one front wheel comes of the ground sit down beside the wheel grab it at 3 an 9 o'clock an push with one hand and pull with the other do this back an forth if there is slop or the clickin noise its your tierod ends

only thing he would need to worry about would be the sussy components. they aren't gonna void warranty on CV's for projector headlights or cf hood or things like that lol

and yes there are people that work for honda browsing these forums :wave:

and jazz CV's don't go too often as they are fairly new cars, i'm pretty sure most dealers would think something's up if u rocked up with stock sussy and gone CV's lol

(but yeah PM me kev ;) )

Hmm well my Civic is lowered and I didnt need to change the original CV's until 220,000km.

Maybe the rubber CV covers came loose and the grease came out, resulting in excessive CV joint wear. If this is the case, then you may only need to replace one CV joint.

Quick question
