anyone know what kind of costs i'm looking into replacing my cv joints. at least i think it's my cv joints, when i make corners, ESPECIALLY left corners, it's just an INSANELY loud clicking noise, but only if i apply gas, if i turn and just let my car roll, then there's no noise, but when there's gas, it's very embarrassing, lol. but yeah i don't really have a lot of money, so would i be alright with just fixing the one for now? and how much will it cost?

[right][snapback]256704[/snapback][/right] You can just do one side if the other is fine. It's best to replace both, but one at a time won't harm anything either.
