So I'm having and enjoyable afternoon changing the oil in my '95 Oldsmobile Cutlass. Lay out the cardboard, slide under the car, pull the drain plug and watch as quarts of black oil drain into my nice clean drain pan. I roll on my back and happen to look up into the wheel well and suspension on the drivers side of the car - that's when I see it - brown grease is everywhere - coating the wheel well, the suspension - everything. I grab my blue paper towels and start wiping. It appears the grease has come from the inner CV axle. My guess is that somewhere on the boot there must be a hole or a split and over time, the grease has been "flung" out. Anyone ever had this happen? Other than removing the axle, is there a cheap and easy way to fix this?
