At Meta Mechanics, we are committed to delivering exceptional automotive repair services, and we recently completed a ball joint replacement for a Toyota Land Cruiser GXR in Dubai. Our experienced technicians performed a thorough inspection of the vehicle and identified several issues that could impact its performance and safety. Here’s a summary of our findings and the solutions we implemented.
Issues Identified
- Worn CV Joints
- Symptoms: Clicking or popping noises during turns and reduced acceleration response.
- Solution: We identified that the CV joints were significantly worn. We replaced them with high-quality OEM joints to restore smooth operation and ensure optimal power transfer to the wheels.
- Suspension Component Wear
- Symptoms: Unstable handling and rough ride quality.
- Solution: During our inspection, we found that other suspension components, including control arms and bushings, were also showing signs of wear. We replaced these parts to enhance stability and ride comfort.
- Damaged Boots
- Symptoms: Grease leakage and dirt contamination.
- Solution: We discovered that the rubber boots protecting the joints were damaged. We replaced the boots to prevent dirt and moisture from entering the joints, ensuring their longevity and proper function.
- Wheel Alignment Issues
- Symptoms: Uneven tire wear and steering pull.
- Solution: After replacing the joints and suspension components, we performed a full wheel alignment to ensure proper handling and extend the life of the new tyres.
- Lubrication of Components
- Symptoms: Noisy operation and increased friction.
- Solution: We ensured that all moving parts were properly lubricated during the repair process to reduce friction and noise, enhancing overall performance.
