When I take a right hand turn without applying gas to the accelerator the popping noise does not exist. So vice-versa for when I am accelerating. My question is how much is it to replace CV-Joints, and Axle? ---

I did the CVs on a Honda Fit recently and the cost was not as bad as I had feared ($750). This link from one of CarTalks partner sites breaks it down and includes a [photocopy of the detailed billing](http://bestride.com/research/buyers-guide/my-mechanic-says-i-need-new-cv-joints-what-are-they-and-why-do-they-fail). Just the parts were about $450, and I looked the parts up on the internet and verified that was a fair cost. We used a local shop we trusted and it was a quick fix. Done same day. The CarTalk Community helped me with some feedback on the pricing. The consensus was it was fair. ---

Rather than just assuming that CV joints are the problem, I would suggest that you have an experienced Subaru specialist take a look at the vehicle. I say that because the symptoms that you mentioned could also be coming from a Center Viscous Coupler that needs to be replaced. If you didn’t rotate the tires on a consistent basis, and/or if you ever ran the vehicle with tires that were mismatched in terms of size, amount of tread, or possibly even the brand of tire, that would take a toll on the Center Viscous Coupler. ---

For a 2010 Forester I’m seeing $400 for the axle shaft ass’y parts cost, and 1 hour labor. I believe that’s for one side.
