TO ALL MILLENNIAL GENERATION: BUDGETING FOR THE CV AXLE ASSEMBLY:

SILICONE CV BOOTS ARE MUCH BETTER THAN OTHER MATERIALS. IF IMPOVERISHED, GO WITH REMANUFACTURED CV AXLE ASSEMBLY WITH SILICONE BOOT COVERS FOR IT EVERY TEN YEARS. THE SUBARU IMPREZA 2.5 RS, YEAR 2005, CV AXLE ASSEMBLY TENDS TO LAST UNTIL 226,500 MILES, THEN REQUIRE JUST THE FRONT (TWO QUANTITY, FRONT) CV AXLE REPLACEMENT. THAT'S PROBABLY FROM NOT USING THE AWD FEATURES VERY MUCH, NEVER RALLYING IT, AND NEVER GOING OFF-ROAD.
