Last week, after two days at Sebring, the rubber boot on my LF CVG joint became loose, and cause it to fail.

 

Grrr

 

Is your car lowered?

 

YES it is lowered. But why do you ask?

 

I ask because last year my 2014 TTS car started making a loud clicking sound with the techart springs. Dealer told me it may because of the added stress the lowering springs added to the suspension. Not sure whom to believe.

 

Your guy at the dealer is smoking dope

 

Agrred, but had same BS from 3 other dealerships.

 

Inner joint or outer joint.
inner is the only joint affected by suspension.

Outer, rubber boot became loose!

 

If just the clamp failed on the boot, I would not stress too much. It has to be replaced of course, but maybe just one of those things.


Keep in mind, the inner joint goes in and out to overcome suspension travel, the outer joint is to allow for the left/right. I would not associate this to being lowered.


Hope it works out quickly for you.
