CV Boot vs. Axle
'98 V70 AWD: driver's side CV boot needs replacement. One non-stealer shop says to replace the boot. Other non-stealer shop says it's more cost-effective to just replace the axle on that side, due to labor costs for either approach. Thoughts? Oh, and does anyone know of a manual that covers the AWD V70s of this ('98) vintage? None of the usual suspects seem to. Thanks!

That makes sense. The result was good: About $200 got me parts and labor for new axle, oil and filter. It seems to handle with a bit more precision, the speedo matches my GPS, there is zero vibration or anything, and now it's on to the next item on the lengthy list.
Thank you for your wisdom, heads-ups, and knowhow.
