Axle Repair & Service — B&B Auto Repair
Expert CV Axle & Drivetrain Service Since 1983
Axle problems announce themselves with clicking, clunking, or vibration — and dealerships love to quote the most expensive fix: a complete axle assembly replacement. At B&B Auto Repair, we inspect the entire drivetrain to determine whether you need a full axle, just a CV boot, or simply a joint replacement. Accurate diagnosis saves you money.
Our ASE Certified technicians have decades of experience with front-wheel, rear-wheel, all-wheel, and four-wheel drive axle systems. From CV axle replacement to differential service, we handle it all — honestly and affordably — backed by our 2-Year / 24,000-Mile warranty.

I appreciate B & B Auto Repair's professionalism and promptness. They have helped me out massively, on a few occasions with my vehicle. Very notably, when I needed a pre-purchase inspection done on a vehicle, they were able to help me same day, though that was not an expected or normal task to add me in so quickly. It made a world of difference to help me through my rough times of having a broken down vehicle and needing to buy another.Posted on Google![]()

We have recently had both my van and my husband's car inspected and repaired by B&B Auto Repair. Both experiences were excellent. The work on my vehicle appears to have resulted in better gas mileage, both highway and local use. B&B just replaced a defective part after several week of use at no cost to me and at my convenience.Posted on Google![]()

Stop Paying Dealership Prices for Axle Work
A dealership will often quote a complete axle assembly when the real problem is a torn CV boot that let grease escape and moisture in. Catching a torn boot early means a $150–$250 repair instead of a $500–$900 axle replacement. At B&B Auto Repair, we check the boots, joints, and bearings individually so you only replace what actually needs replacing.
Common Axle and CV Joint Issues
- Clicking when turning — classic sign of a worn outer CV joint
- Clunking during acceleration — may indicate inner CV joint or differential issue
- Vibration at highway speed — could be a worn axle shaft, joint, or wheel bearing
- Grease on the inner fender or tire — a torn CV boot leaking lubricant
- ABS warning light — sometimes triggered by a failing wheel speed sensor near the axle
Axle Services We Provide
- CV axle inspection and replacement
- CV boot replacement (when caught early)
- Rear axle shaft and bearing service
- Differential inspection and service
- U-joint replacement
- Driveshaft repair
- 4WD and AWD transfer case service
We Get It Done Right
What Our Bremerton Customers Ask Most
Most CV axle failures start with a torn boot that allows grease to escape and moisture to enter the joint. Regular inspection can catch torn boots early, avoiding the more expensive full axle replacement.
CV axle replacement typically costs $300–$700 per side depending on the vehicle. If only the boot is damaged and the joint is still good, repair costs significantly less. We always diagnose before recommending.
A clicking CV joint will continue to worsen and can eventually fail completely, which is a safety hazard. We recommend having it inspected promptly to determine the urgency of the repair.
