While discussing steering problems: Technician A says that a “jerky” steering wheel and a “clunking” noise could indicate worn steering column U-joints. Technician B says that lack of assist and a “growling” noise in a fluid-filled steering pump could indicate a hose or pump internal restriction. Who is correct?
Technician A says that electronically controlled power-steering systems allow for power assistance even when an engine stalls. technician B says tha an electronic rack and pinion system provides power assistance even when the engine stalls. who is correct?
Technician A says that on FWD vehicles, the front wheels toe-out while the rear wheels on an independent suspension try to toe-in as the vehicle moves ahead. Technician B says that on RWD vehicles, the front wheels tend to toe-in while the rear wheels toe-out in response to rolling resistance as suspension compliance. Who is correct?
