OK I'm gonna replace one driveshaft this afternoon. But, if the CV knocking noise is worse when turning left does this mean one side or the other is to blame? I know the n/s outer CV is shot anyway but I'm starting to have my doubts about the other side too |

Oh dear, looks like both need replacing then. I'll get one done and take it for a spin. |

Success - replaced n/s shaft and running much better. I'd happily turn left now even round the tightest of corners! I still get a noise though, this time from the other side - what's the way of telling o/s CV joint failure from o/s wheel bearing failure?  |
