My theories:
- The speed-sensitive variable-assist on the power steering pump gets a little flaky.
- There's a bushing in the steering system that gets warm and "sticks" a little.
- Adaptive Headlight mechanical linkage gets a little sticky. |
This vehicle has electric power assist so there is no power steering pump.
The steering shaft only has bearings, no bushings
There is no mechanical linkage for the adaptive headlamp system.
