I posted this under general discussion but maybe it should be here.
I have to replace the outer left front CV joint on my 2001 Jetta, it's really noisy. I haven't located any threads on replacing the CV, but also, does the wheel bearing need to be replaced (it's only 6 months old), because of the stress of pushing the axle out of it.. I understand wheel bearings don't like to have any stress put on the center racing.
