Chevrolet HHR CV Boot Parts Questions & Experts Answers
- Q: How do you remove the inner CV Boot for Chevrolet Cobalt,HHR and Saturn ION?A: To remove the inner CV joint, start by removing the CV axle and mounting it in a vise with wood-lined jaws to prevent damage. Check the CV joints for excessive play and smooth operation. If a boot is torn, disassemble the joint, clean the components, and inspect for damage. If the CV joint is in good condition, lubricate it with CV joint grease and install a new boot. To disassemble, cut the boot clamps and remove the boot, exposing the tri-pot spider assembly. Remove the snap-ring and mark the tri-pot to the axleshaft. Use a hammer and brass drift to drive the spider assembly from the axleshaft and slide off the boot. Thoroughly clean all components and inspect for wear. Reassemble by wrapping the splines with tape, sliding on the boot and clamps, and tapping the spider assembly onto the shaft. Apply grease and insert the tri-pot into the housing. Slide the boot into place, ensuring proper seating, and secure with clamps. For outer CV joint removal, cut the boot clamps and slide the boot away. Make a reference mark and measure the distance to the inner bearing race. Spread apart the snap-ring and slide off the CV joint. Clean and inspect all components. Reassemble by sliding on a new sealing boot clamp and boot, placing a new bearing retainer clip, packing the CV joint with grease, and driving it onto the axleshaft. Ensure proper seating and equalize the pressure in the boot. Secure with clamps and reinstall the CV axle.
- Q: How to inspect the CV Boot of a Chevrolet Cobalt,HHR and Saturn ION?A: With the vehicle stopped and the front wheels pointed straight ahead, rock the steering wheel gently back and forth to check for excessive freeplay. Excessive freeplay may indicate worn front wheel bearings, steering shaft universal joint, lower arm balljoint, or a broken or improperly adjusted steering gear. Other symptoms such as excessive body movement over rough roads, swaying around corners, and binding when turning the steering wheel may indicate faulty steering or suspension components. Check the shock absorbers by pushing down and releasing the vehicle at each corner. If the vehicle does not come back to a level position within one or two bounces, the shocks/struts are worn and need to be replaced. Listen for squeaks and noises from the suspension components while bouncing the vehicle. Check the struts and shock absorbers for evidence of fluid leakage. A light film of fluid is normal, but if leakage is noted, replace the struts/shocks as a set. Ensure that the struts and shocks are securely mounted and undamaged, and check the upper mounts for damage and wear. Raise the vehicle with a floor jack and support it securely on jackstands. Check the tires for irregular wear patterns and proper inflation. Inspect the universal joint between the steering shaft and the steering gear housing, as well as the steering gear housing for lubricant leakage. Check the steering linkage for looseness or damage, and inspect the tie-rod ends for excessive play. Look for loose bolts, broken or disconnected parts, and deteriorated rubber bushings on all suspension and steering components. Check the steering components for free movement, chafing, and binding while an assistant turns the steering wheel. Check the balljoints for wear by trying to move each control arm up and down with a prybar. Replace any balljoint with play. Inspect the balljoint boots for damage and leaking grease, and replace them if necessary. At the rear of the vehicle, inspect the suspension arm bushings for deterioration. Lastly, inspect the CV boots for tears, cracks, and loose clamps. Wash the boots with soap and water to prevent premature deterioration. The outer CV boot should be inspected regularly due to constant pivoting. Replace any boots with cracks or leaking lubricant.
