Default New drive shaft

I had a vibration and noise coming from the front end somewhere; dealer replaced the wheel bearing and stated the drive shaft was bad too; I thought they were crazy and took it to another shop they confirmed the drive shaft was bad; I've never heard of such a thing.....anyway I order the drive shaft from Shokan and should be back on the road by Monday. I was just wondering if this is a common problem with our beloved sedans.

Default Just do a search of the forum archives.

You will see this issue has sprung up here and there.

Default I got my rebuilt assembly from Raxles in Gainesville. After pulling the old one, I found out..

..that it was BS. They told me that my axle was cracked - BS. After proving that it was ok, they finally admitted that they misdiagnosed me. Everytime I decide to have someone else work on my car, I get screwed.

Default Re: Strongsville

I'm in Monroe Falls, I go to North Royalton four times a week. We'll have to maybe grab lunch at 5 Guys Burgers in Southpark Mall one of these Saturdays.
