    A buddy of mine from Eastern Europe just got stuck in a remote village. His rear wheel bearing began to make loud rumbling noise, and he panicked and went to the nearest garage that tried but failed to remove the bearings. They say CV joints are seized. Is this a common problem with AWD Getz, or is the mechanic putting him together for the replacement of whole knuckle assemblies?

    Yes, he lives in a rust belt and travels north to south and back all the time, so he is in the snow one week and in the scorching sun the other.
