Which effect does a worn wheel bearing have on steering?

  • A.An off centre steering wheel, which follows from the change in the effective position of the wheel within the hub
  • B.Play, noise and a rumble that changes with cornering
  • C.A pull to one side, which appears because the resistance at the two wheels is no longer equal to one another
  • D.Heavy steering

Answer: B

A worn bearing gives play at twelve and six o'clock, a rumbling noise, and the noise changes as the load transfers in a corner. Loading the bearing by steering makes the diagnosis. It also corrupts an alignment measurement. Reading the definition literally, rather than recalling a summary, avoids the usual confusion. Tracing the requirement back to the physical constraint that produces it makes the answer follow.
