Typical signs include a click in tight turns, grease flung around the wheel well, or a vibration that builds with speed. A torn boot caught early is a boot kit; caught late it is the whole axle. Torque the axle nut to the method in the notes.

Buying Drivetrain Parts for a 2002 Acura MDX

On this vehicle, the drivetrain system moves power from transmission to wheels through axles, CV joints, driveshafts, differentials and wheel-end hardware.

  • Cross-reference the manufacturer part number against your old part or a service-manual listing.

Start with the largest groups on this page: CV Axle and Axle Shaft Seal .
