hi everyone,
been awhile since i posted out but here goes,car passed mot 2 weeks ago and everything was fine till last week.i notice going round corners car has a knocking sound on steering lock weather it was left or right turn.anyway to day i had to use diff lock as i was stuck in snow on ice and no probs and it disenaged fine aswell.so could this be me cv joint.anyway iv lifted wheel off ground and it spins fine as in no grinding but there is lot of movement form top to bottom left to right so now im thinking wheel bearings here.now if the cv joint is worn would this cause the play i have in the wheel or is it bearing s aswell. and last question if it is cv joint how can i tell if its 10 spline or 24 so i can order parts .
many thanks in advance
