Maybe you would require a Nikon AF-S 28-70 2.8G lens, if that model lens is available, not sure, do you have FX or DX equipment? I do not have the lens in question, I am a newbie myself, and have all G lens, no issues. Nikon D3300 camera.
The problem you have is with the internal AF-S focus motor. That was one of the very first generation of that motor and its getting quite dated now. Its a very fine lens and would be well worth the cost of repair, in my opinion.
