Quick facts
- Part: TrakMotive KA-8124 CV axle shaft
- Fits: 2011-2013 Kia Optima
- Position: Front left
- Condition: New
A torn boot with grease thrown around the wheel area, a clicking sound when turning or vibration while accelerating can mean an axle shaft is worn. With the engine off, look for torn rubber and flung grease first, since wheel bearings and suspension parts can make similar noises, and a shop can confirm the cause.
