An axle shaft is a straight rotating shaft, while a CV (Constant Velocity) axle includes constant velocity joints at both ends to accommodate angular movement in front-wheel drive and independent suspension systems.
Common signs include clicking sounds during turns (CV joint wear), vibration during acceleration, grease leakage from boots, or visible damage to the shaft or splines.
Typically replaced as a unit due to precision requirements and heat treatment. CV joints may be serviceable on some models, but damaged shafts require complete replacement.
