Failure to record onto the job card all the time you have spent repairing a vehicle will:

• Lead to inaccurate billing

• Improve customer satisfaction

• Reduce paperwork

• Increase repair time

Which of the following faults could be caused by worn shock absorbers?

A driver complains of steering wheel 'shakes' that gets worse as the vehicle's speed increases.

• Wheel misalignment

• Engine misfire

• Low tire pressure

• Faulty alternator

In relation to steering geometry 'Negative Offset' is produced when the:
