#31826, "cv boot leak"




          

ok i'm posting this here bc not many people read the handling/suspension forum... i recently replaced my drivers side ball joint and in thge process must have made a hole in the cv boot right above it. i've driven the car for maybe 50 miles max and just noticed that the boot is leaking. the hole is smaller than a pinhole. you can't even see it, but if you sqeuuze the boot, grease comes out. there was maybe enough grease on the balljoint below it to fill a shot glass. my question is: can i seal it with anything in any way? maybe jb weld or something? cant you replace just the boot? i don't think you can. also, do you think the joint is done after the amount of grease that came out?

note: i have another post in the handling forum about wheel wobble, i don't think that this is related due to the fact that it's been such a short period of time, but let me know what you think. thanks
