Whist having work done on my 1990 GL at a VW dealer (it was insurance
work from the fire) the service manager mentioned that the tech wanted
my to know there was an axle joint, the right outer that is, was going
bad.  Yes it does sound bad, I wish I could record it and send it as a
.wav file for you all to hear.
    Any way my question is, is the axle joint synomonous with the CV
joint?  My boot seems to be intact.  Has anyone had this happen before?
I do have 215,000 miles in this thing.  Is the repair labour/time
intensive?  Any advice would be appreciated.  Thank you in advance,
