Mitsubishi Eclipse Cross CV Joint Service Malaysia
The Eclipse Cross FWD variant uses front CV joints on the driveshafts. The AWD variant additionally has rear driveshafts connecting to the rear differential coupling. CV boot tears are the most common issue — torn boots allow grease to escape and dirt to enter, leading to CV joint wear. A clicking or clunking noise when turning at low speed is a classic sign of a worn CV joint. Inspect CV boots at every major service, especially after driving through flooded areas common in Malaysia.
Eclipse Cross CV Joint
- AWD variants have additional rear driveshaft CV joints — inspect all CV boots every 40,000 km
- Clicking during cornering indicates worn front CV joint; vibration at speed indicates worn rear shaft on AWD
- Replace as a complete shaft assembly rather than just the joint for best durability
