    Cv joint/ wheel bearing! C20XE Corsa

    Hey guys quick one for you!
    Garage has fitted a cv gaitor to my nearside cv joint (they might have changed te cv joint aswell i need to check the paperwork)

    When setting off now i'm hearing like a creaking noise just as i set off and then it stops straight away, its coming from the nearside front corner i think.

    Any ideas what it may be?
    Wheel bearing was loose as well so they've tightened that back up?

    Thanks in advance guys
    Connor

    On a front wheel bearing it is jot adjustable so they wouldnt have been able to tighten it
    sounds like more of a brake binding issue

    I would identify the issue first to be sure rather than pricing up parts you may not need.

    I would just jack the front up take the wheel off and have a look/wiggle rotate etc should be obvious
