    Grease splatter on wheels

    I noticed yesterday that there was a grease like substance splattered on the outside of my left rim. I then looked inside and rim and noticed even more on the inside.

    Was wondering whats broken now? *sigh*

    Check your CV shaft boots. They're probably busted/cracked and flinging the grease about when your driving and they're rotating

    Time to do them again. You can clean up the grease splatter with Wax & Grease Remover, then a quick polish and buff.

    they may not be spit, rather not done up tight and grease leaked out and splattered on your rims

    They better be done properly since I got them done at Revzone!

    just jack the car up, take off the wheel and have a look at the boot, if it is splited, u can easily see it.

    or like other mentioned, the shop might not tighten the boot properly.

    Also, if the incorrect boot is used (too short or not large enough in diameter) they can come off the joint
