DRIVESHAFT & U-JOINTS

Your vehicle's axle, CV joint, and driveshaft components are integral to the performance and drivability of your vehicle. The driveshaft is a steel or aluminum cylindrical component that connects the transmission to the rear differential. The driveshaft connects to the transmission through the CV joints, which are responsible for transferring the torque from the transmission to the drive wheels at a constant speed. Front wheel drive vehicles use CV joints on the front axles. CV joints allow the axle to bend and change while accommodating the bounce of the wheels. The axle bears the weight of the vehicle while also being strong enough to sustain the forces from braking and accelerating. Over time and through normal use, your vehicle's axle, CV joint, and driveshaft components may require maintenance or replacement services.

We repair and balance drive shafts and we replace U-Joints. Our driveshaft work done by master technicians is backed with our three year 100,000 mile parts and labor warranty.
There are signs to look for when determining when to schedule an inspection of your vehicle's front axle, rear axle, CV joints, and driveshaft components.

Clunking or clicking noises are signs that a CV joint needs replacement. Vibrations during acceleration may indicate a damaged driveshaft, though they may also point to an axle issue depending on the layout of your vehicle. Turning and steering issues may also arise out of a problem with the driveshaft. CV joints can go bad when the grease leaks out of a damaged CV boot. There are various determinants for how quickly your vehicle's axle, CV joint, and driveshaft components will degrade over time. If you would like to learn more about the intervals between repairs for front wheel drive axles, main driveshafts, CV joints, U-joints, yokes, and other axle assembly components, then contact us today.

Certified Transmission - Certi-Care Evaluation

Certified Transmission offers an inspection of your transmission problem at all our San Diego County transmission shops.The Certi-Care Evaluation is done by a transmisison expert. Let us explain what we are going to do when we perform our Certi-Care Evaluation:

First, we are going to scan your vehicle's computer to check for service codes.

Second, we perform a road test as long as your vehicle is drivable.

Third, we will also do an under car check looking for any leaks or incorrect adjustments. When we are doing the under car evaluation we look for not only transmisison leaks/transfer case/cooler lines etc., we will also advise you if their is something else we see or do not do see. We also check the differentials and power steering fluids. When looking for improper adjustments we want to make sure that something simple is not the causing the problem.

Over 66% of the vehicles we check out do not need a major repair.
