Had a look under the car today to find CV grease covering the hub,stut bolts and wishbone 
It seems the clip has snapped and grease has just been pouring out all over the place. I've wrapped a jubilee clip round on top of the snapped clip to seal it for now but obviously this is not the best long term solution.
Are there any problems driving the car with so little grease in the CV? and will the new clip hold? |
