    yeah it sucks, what seems to be an easy job creates another headache :blink: oh by the way, cost wise i paid $210 total. ~$10 for a quart of transmission fluid + $120 for both cv axles + $80 labor (note: not a shop just a house).

    Yep axle shaft assembly it is :thumbsup: .. will make sure on Saturday that it is what will be replaced (driver & passenger side). I do hear clunky noises when doing left U-turns and also when turning to the right from the street to park on our driveway (driveway a bit elevated).

    Grinding Noise on Start and No Traction

    Wow I hear that grinding noise once in a while on my 2010 Corolla LE too. It only happens in the morning. If there's a service bulletin on it will (Toyota) cover it even it's out of warranty? Car is regularly maintained at the same Toyota dealership we bought the car from.
