Mitsubishi ASX CV Joint Service Malaysia
The Mitsubishi ASX GA3W (FWD) has front CV joints that transmit power from the transmission to the front wheels through a flexible joint. The AWD GA6W variant also has rear CV joints and driveshaft components. CV joint boots protect the joints from contamination; when boots crack or tear, grease escapes and dirt enters, accelerating wear. A clicking sound when turning at low speed is the classic sign of a worn outer CV joint. Boot replacement is straightforward; full CV joint replacement is required if the joint itself is damaged.
