CV Axles Explained

In this video I give an explanation of what a CV axle is, what applications they are used for, and I also tear a CV axle apart while naming the parts of the CV axle and explaining how they work. Please enjoy! Let me know if you have any questions.
Note: The methods used in this video to disassemble the CV axle are not intended to be followed, especially if you intend on reusing a CV axle or rebuilding it. The CV axle in the video was disassembled for the sole purpose of explaining how a CV axle works.

I have a 15 wrx. How do I diagnose a squeaky mattress of a noise in my front end?
It's likely in the front at least. It has a rotationary type noise to it... while taking off especially, or driving under 50kph/35mph. Lastly that it is not always constant or every drive. It doesnt happen if im not moving. Its related to rotating with the rolling of the car. If I stop at a light and start moving again, it can change the chances of noise/no noise. Im sure its something about the steering area rather than any belts, yet does not affect turning of the wheel but does engage the noise easier if i am going slowly around corners.. but its irrelevant. This is while driving straight lines and can change upon heavy pace adjustment as i stated. Anyone know? Thank you :)

The use of chassis ears may help in a situation like this. Noises can be very difficult to pin point. Using chassis ears can help to narrow it down. Unfortunately I don't have any information about this on my channel yet. Sounds like I have an idea for another video.
