V90 steering stiff after repair 900

posted by  someone claiming to be sredwine on  Thu Dec 9 09:27 CST 2004 [RELATED]

I just picked up my wife's V90 from the body shop yesterday-she hit a curb hard and broke the spindle where the tie rod attached to it.Car drives fine,EXCEPT the steering does not easily re-center the last 20 degrees of steering wheel motion at low speeds.Feels normal,you just have to coax it back to center.Before the wwreck,there was a very slight "click" from the steering that is no longer there.I am wondering-did the mechanic adjust out this click and stiffen the rack up?Anybody know if there is a pre-load/lash screw in these racks?If not,I think we will have to have the insurance company cough up a rack.
