Pls Does This CV Joint Require Change Or Repair by izaac23(op): 10:35pm On Jan 14, 2022

I entered under my vehicle to inspect, I discovered that my CV joint rubber seal has blown open and the grease has spilled out ( pics attached)

Pls my gurus help me, does this part require changing it totally or will it be repairable by buying another rubber seal to cover it with grease?

And pls how sensitive is the repair of this part.
I need guidance pls my people to avoid this mechanic from complicating my issues for me pls

The CV joint should be checked first. If it's worn out, the shaft should be replaced. If it's just the rubber booth is torn only, you can have only that rubber booth replaced

I have done that, fortunately for me, it was just the rubber that tore out which I have installed it.
