I have just noticed that the small ring clip circled below (not actual photo) has separated from the rubber boot.I had the whole cv joint replaced in August and noticed a 'crackling' noise straight away, as though it was being over stretched. Thought I would see how it goes in case the rubber was stiff. After a month the noise stopped and I thought nothing more of it. Would I be right in thinking that this was not put on correctly or have I been unlucky?
I need to take it back to the mechanic and need to know the best approach. On a side not would there have been an issue of grease starvation (from it escaping) or would centrifugal forces keep it away from that area?
