After my trans install

I am now leaking green grease from the CV joint and there is a pop in both suspension sides I can not get to go away. All the bolts are tight. Any recommendations of best way to deal with the CV boot issue? Halfboot? Rebuild? Do I need to take the rotor off to get the CV to come out. This is getting really frustrating since I just want it to work. UGH

Rebuild. Do not use a half boot. They still leak and don't last. Half boots are good to save your cv joint till you can actually re-boot it. Temp at best.

Just got off the phone with honda. They are going to cover the replacement. I dont think green grease can come from anywhere else besides there so I dont see having to have an arguement with them in the future.
