    I wouldn’t know myself

    But I’m sure if you post your make, model, year, and trim. Etc. the guys who might know would chime in.

    For what it’s worth
    Completely different car but a quick google search showed this
    According to that particular vehicle it’s normal for suspension flex etc. again not sure just for reference

    Also found this on a older Tacoma
    https://www.tacomaworld.com/threads/is-this-cv-axle-play-normal.46338/

    According to that thread it seems normal

    But if you have the warranty I would go to Toyota! To double make ultra mega sure. Some people say it’s normal some dont

    Normal, but...
    That's a part of the reason the ECGS bearing was developed.
