Cruise control is about the only steering/engine connection, through the clockspring. Coincidence maybe.

Sounds like something triggered limp-mode.

Check transmission fluid level and add some. Some dipsticks bottom out and read low. Maybe it sucked some air during your side to side manuever. Automatic?

Gremlins?

I looked for a post on LOSTJEEPS that had photos of a disassembled EGR valve but the photos disappeared when the photobucket got kicked.

Check your air intake hose going from the airbox to the turbo; They rot a hole in the bottom of the hose near the turbo and change the readings from the airbox sensors. Check for rot holes in the intercooler hoses as well. Replace with silicon hoses if they're bad. There's a gadget with a tiny air filter between the turbo and passenger fender; check the little air filter and look on LOSTJEEPS for a test process for the gadget which is a turbo vane actuator (or something like that), they go bad. You can reach under the turbo and move the variable vane mechanism to see if it's moving freely. Do that on a cold non-running engine.

I doubt there's any problem with your turbo if there's no play on the shaft. A tiny bit of end play is OK.

ID Parts and Sasquatch Parts have almost anything you'll need.
Can you share pictures about your tips leak research please ? I am newbie at Jeep and french is my mother tongue ;)
