Video tutorial

In this video we can see the reasons why a Fiat Punto (but of course this motivation is valid for a large number of cars) when turning produces a loud noise at the level of the wheels, and often the wheels themselves are dirty with grease. In fact, we have a broken boot, from which we lose a lot of grease.

We just want to give an indication of what to do: first of all we need to disconnect the steering head, isolate and disconnect the ABS sensor. disconnect the axle joint from the wheel hub, and then disconnect the boot, which is the object that has worn out, losing all the grease that has dirtied the wheel.

We replace it with the new boot, which must be installed using a particular professional tool, which spreads the boot, inserting it into the joint extremely easily.

We put back the steering head, the ABS sensor and take a test drive, which will confirm that the defect has been eliminated.
