Nice car. 120,000 miles ain’t that much nowadays, given that the vehicle received frequent enough oil changes.
To test CV joints, find a wide open space, and, with windows down, turn tight clockwise and counter-clockwise (right and left for those of the digital, not analogue age) turns. Clunks are not your friend. Tears in the boots are another excellent clue. I’ve heard CV joints clunking badly on cars going straight ahead and wondered how many miles until the driver had until they found themselves stranded.
Your 13 Volt reading is too close to the resting Voltage of a car battery for me. I would like to see ~14 Volts when running… Based on the accuracy of the Voltmeter of course. (It should be close enuff.)
<sigh> I guess I just talked myself into a post about car battery Voltages to clarify.
