differnt needs, teh cv take lots of shock loading and probably a bit more slipping but (should not) get as hot as disc brake wheel bearing whicjh have a higher surface speed and little slipping , so generally cv grease has additive to help with shock loading and high loads while disc brake wheel bearing grease has more high temp additives. some MAY be able to handle both, but I would stick tot eh right stuff, the labour and parts price to fix either if the grease is substandard is not worth the risk.

hows the Buick running? mine is getting aligned today!
