Mileage: 74207
Questions for the field:
Are power steering pump shaft bearings on this vehicle prone to noise/squeal? Serpentine belt is new/ tensioner seems good. Is the bearing easy to replace? On car ? Or should the entire pump be replaced?
Second topic: Right side wheel thumping at all speeds. Brake pads are new, rotors re-surfaced. Rotated tires to rule out rim. Piston in caliper expands and seats on testing. Brakes seem soft however. Could anything in the drive axle cause this?
Thanks
