    CV Joints

    During my annual, I noticed that the area around the outside CV joints shows excessive grease splatter. Does this indicate leaking boots or can the joints leak grease from somewhere else?

    Thanks in advance,

    Boots and or gaskets. Clean them up and you should see something.
