The service life of the axle shafts also depends on the way you drive. Avoid full throttle when turning the front wheels, and avoid starting off with spinning drive wheels. Noises that indicate a malfunction sometimes come on suddenly and then disappear for a few days.
rhythmic noises (Knock-Knock) when pressing the accelerator pedal, as well as when coasting (noises can change when turning the steered wheels) indicate a malfunction in the hinge on the wheel side.
If the steering wheel vibrates and trembles when turning the wheels, the external hinge is obviously also damaged.
Knocking when starting off with the wheels turned may indicate a defective axle shaft. The same symptoms are accompanied by a wheel bearing failure.
