The first thing you need to pay attention to is the condition of the dust filter, if it is clogged with black soot, disassemble it and throw out the inserts (the filters themselves)

To check the condition of the steering rod joints, place the vehicle on a level horizontal surface so that the front wheels are straight ahead
