    CV boot gone..

    So there I am washing my car when I notice my front right rim has some sticky grease on it..I feared the worst so finished washing proceeded to remove the wheel and found a load of grease sitting on the wishbone and messed up the inner rim well

    It seems to have split down the middle and the last boot I had go at least didn't leak grease (opposite side).

    So my question is, will it be ok to drive getting it down to the garage (About 20 minutes drive early morning). There is a fair amount of grease still left in the joint area so it should be ok right? And it's in dry weather, no rain or such.

    Hopefully my local specialist has more cv boot kits available (I knew I should have bought two the last time I was there)

      Should be fine, they only really work hard when angled under load.
