A replacement CV axle, for example, can cost $50 and $150 or more. Always talk with three to five mechanics to see what they charge. As long as you know this is the issue, most shops can offer a ballpark estimate over the phone.
Even though an axle seal is not a very expensive part, the repair cost may vary from $150 to $650, depending on the complexity. For example, in the Ford Escape mentioned above, a leaking axle seal is recommended to be replaced as a kit with an axle bushing and inner CV joint; this may cost up to $600-$650. In many cars, an axle seal is covered by the Powertrain Warranty, check your vehicleâs warranty brochure to verify.
