The most common signs are vibrations under acceleration or clicking noises while driving. If you notice a cracked CV boot and grease has leaked out, there is a high risk that the drive shaft or CV joint needs replacing.
Often the mechanical components of the drive shaft itself are identical, but it is important to check by selecting your exact model, year and engine variant, as weight differences and model years can require different part numbers for optimal performance.
Yes, if the shaft itself is undamaged and the vibrations or noises only stem from the outer joint, you can replace just the outer CV joint, which is often a more cost-effective solution.
