The service station is telling me that one of my CV boots is leaking and the other one is rotted. They also told me that when the CV boots are changed, the axle shafts need replacing also, is this correct?
They are quoting me 300-400 per side.[img:1bfdb988c1]http://www.2carpros.com/forum/automotive_pictures/350395_monkey_1.jpg[/img:1bfdb988c1]
