Hi, my name is Devin. I am an auto repair expert with the Car Genius team here at RepairPal. A minor leak around the CV axle boot of your RAV4 is often caused by a small tear or damage to the boot or a weak clamp, allowing grease to seep out. Even though there’s no clicking noise when turning, indicating joint wear, it’s important to address this early. Over time, losing grease will cause the CV joint to dry out, leading to more severe damage. You could consider replacing the boot to prevent future problems, especially since it’s still minor. If you need more advice, have any other questions about your vehicle, or would like to get connected to a RepairPal Certified shop near you, we have you covered.
