Car Forum / Nissan / Nissan Altima / August 2006CV Joints
My '89 Altima has begun to make a 'clunking' noise as it turns corners. To be more specific: when it turns right and I accelerate. I suspected the CV joint. The outer CV boots on both drive shafts are split, but the inner boots are still intact. I was able to put some extra grease in the CV joint on the driver's side (about three big fingers full) but it hasn't eliminated the noise. Anything else I should try?? Your kidding right? If the boots are split, they need to be fixed. Now that you have run with split boots for so long, the CV joints are contaminated and worn out. They need replacement. >My '89 Altima has begun to make a 'clunking' noise as it turns >corners. To be more specific: when it turns right and I accelerate.
