The CV axle and intermediate shaft are vital parts of your vehicle's drivetrain. They transfer power from the transmission to the wheels while allowing for flexibility during turns and suspension movement. If either component begins to fail, it can impact your ability to steer, accelerate, and maintain control of the vehicle—making prompt attention critical. Symptoms of a Bad CV Axle Common signs of a bad CV axle include clicking or popping noises during turns, grease leaks f

Your vehicle’s steering system is essential for safe handling and control. Whether it uses hydraulic power steering or electric assist, any failure in this system can compromise your ability to turn, avoid hazards, or keep the vehicle stable on the road. Catching early warning signs helps prevent dangerous failures and expensive repairs. 1. Difficulty Turning the Steering Wheel If your steering wheel becomes hard to turn or feels stiff, it may indicate low power steering flui

When your vehicle starts making strange noises while driving, especially around the wheels, it can be tricky to pinpoint the cause. Two common culprits are bad CV axles and worn wheel bearings. While the symptoms may seem similar, knowing how to tell them apart is essential for accurate diagnosis, proper repair, and safe driving. What Is a CV Axle and What Does It Do? The CV (constant velocity) axle is part of your drivetrain, connecting the transmission to the wheels and all

Acceleration vibration is one of the clearest signs that something in the drivetrain, suspension, or engine mounting system is no longer functioning correctly. While some vibrations feel minor at first, they often signal wear that will worsen over time and eventually affect overall vehicle safety and performance. At GSP North America, we supply OE-quality CV axles, hub assemblies, and driveline components engineered to eliminate the most common causes of vibration. Understand

CV axles play a critical role in transferring power from the drivetrain to the wheels, allowing your vehicle to accelerate, steer, and maintain traction through suspension movement. Whether your vehicle is front-wheel drive, rear-wheel drive, or all-wheel drive, a worn axle can cause handling issues, noise, and drivability concerns that worsen over time. Understanding the difference between front and rear CV axle failure symptoms helps technicians diagnose problems accurately

Suspension noises are one of the most common complaints drivers bring to repair shops, yet diagnosing sounds can be challenging without understanding which components typically produce them. Each noise type—popping, clunking, whistling, whining, or squeaking—provides insight into which suspension or drivetrain component may be failing. At GSP North America, we supply high-quality CV axles, hub assemblies, and suspension components engineered for OE-level performance. Understa
