Hi jagstype2004,

Welcome to the Jaguar Forums. It's great to have you with us.

The most common symptoms of a failing CV joint are clicking or popping noises, especially while turning. If the CV joint or axle is truly broken, no power will be delivered to the rear wheels because of the way the differential works.

The most common reason a wheel would wobble is that the rim was bent in the accident. You need a good safety inspection by a knowledgeable mechanic to determine which parts have been damaged and will need to be replaced.

Please keep us informed, and we'll look forward to your introduction as mentioned by Graham.

Cheers,

Don
