What are some of the signs of a CV Axle failure? I've got a 2002 Monte Carlo SS that needed the drivers side from wheel bearing and CV axle replaced. This one was starting to get a clattery noise while turning into a parking spot, there was some vibration that could be felt in the steering wheel at speed and there was grease buildup where the grease boot had come loose. Once I pulled the CV out, it was apparent that the grease had been flung out and was beginning to run dry. When a CV starts to run dry, the rollers begin to get hotter than normal and start to seize up. This hadn't quite gone to that point, and I can see that it wasn't far from that. Glad I caught this when I did so that this didn't cause bigger problems or need to be towed.
