Any mechanics on the board? Please help.

So, I'm currently having an issue with my vehicle.

Can't determine if its the power steering or wheel bearings,

I need help identifying the problem so I can get it fixed, but I want the TRUTH because I know how some auto shops are when it comes to women.

I am not asking for an exchange of services for my car to be fixed,

I am personally just looking for a honest diagnosis so I can take care of the actual problem. I am so annoyed with this whinning noise!!!

I am only searching on here because I just experienced this with another mechanic at an auto shop,I brought my car in and he stated it was a CV axle issue - so I replaced both of my front ones & I STILL HAVE THIS PROBLEM, wasted $600 for parts & labor and I don't want to go through this again!

If you work, own, or really good with cars and you are located in the 90/1604 area, or if you are within reasonable distance I can always come by.

Let me know, please! Send a PM or text 210-740-0279


XOXO,

Power steering noises typically can also be heard when the car is in park and the wheel is turned back and forth. For CV joints or bearing issues, the car needs to be moving.
If its shaking while you drive it may be as simple as an unbalanced or out of round tire, I would start there. If it persist after it could be a wheel bearing. While the car is lifted with wheels off the ground push hard on the top side of the tire. If the is any movement inward the bearing is bad.

Of course PAYMENT is involved, silly buns.

Since you're so concerned like you're the one coming out of pocket.

You can dismiss yourself to the next thread.

Grow up. Stop jumping to conclusions, maybe you should read or ask questions before making false statements.

If you aren't even a mechanic or willing to help me indentify the problem, then your 2 cents can be kept in your pocket. Or toss then to another provider who is more than willing to hear it.
Like I'm seeking for help on finding out what the problem is on my car not seeking rent money lmfao seriously get it together

If the noise only occurs when you turn the steering wheel then you may just be low on power steering fluid. Have you checked its level? If you have enough fluid then another possibility is the power steering pump itself.

If they were to fix the problem you mentioned & didn't... tell them to get their happy azz in gear & # 1 have them give you your $$ back of # 2... FIX IT.

If you paid with a major credit card... have the CC company refund your $$... that will get their attention FAST!!!
Buy the parts and barter for the labor once it is fixed to your satisfaction.
