My car is giving some strange noises when turning to right or specially when driving on a hill side and turnign to right only.
When turn to left no noise heard. I want know which CV jooint (axcel, inner or outer) got a problem and needs to be replaced. one mechanic told me to replace inner axcel at right side(Driver side), and one told me to replace outer of passenger side (left side) CV joint.

I am a little bit confused, so please suggest.

It is difficult to diagnose without hearing the noise ? but generally if you have a noise whilst turning right replace the right axle, a good technician should be able to advise once hearing the noise
