Kia Spectra do it yourself steering rack repair

Everyone knows that the steering rack in vehicles is the main device that is responsible for the safety of the car, and therefore its malfunction can "do a lot of trouble." Steering rack for kia spectra removed in two cases, either for its repair or complete replacement. In case of not knowing how replace the steering rack you need to seek qualified help or follow further instructions, which will tell you in detail how you can do this yourself.

Before starting work on replacing the rail, you must prepare the following wrenches: ordinary ones for sizes 10, 17, 24, then a specialized wrench for pipeline nuts for 17 and a wrench for unscrewing the nuts on the wheels. Next, we put the car on the inspection hole and directly we proceed to dismantle the rail itself :

Taking off steering rack on Kia Spectra, decide what to do with it, replace or repair, then assemble the elements. The dismantled rack is assembled in the reverse order, the working fluid is again poured into the hydraulic booster (accordingly, all air is removed from the system), if necessary, the installation angles on the front wheels are adjusted.

The steering rack is a mechanism that transfers power from the steering wheel to the steering wheel. A broken rail makes driving extremely dangerous.

Steering rack Spectra: signs of breakage

1. Mechanical problems are evident when the vehicle is in motion, and the operation of the mechanism is accompanied by strange noises and vibration of the steering wheel.
2. The power steering fluid starts to drain quickly due to a leak.
3. The power steering pump may appear congested during normal operation as the rack begins to increase the required input pressure before the vehicle turns.
4. Clutch noise appears and the steering wheel begins to behave freely (decrease in fixation and steering resistance).

1. Deterioration. Over time, all equipment gets old and breaks down. It also depends on external factors and the handling of the vehicle. If you often drive in the pits, then an unpleasant knock will soon begin to be heard and cracks in the device will appear. The accumulation of air, dirt and dust inside the system leads to wear of the seals. As a result, a leak occurs.
2. Careless handling of the vehicle by drivers. Subzero temperatures have a bad effect. If you leave the car in the cold with the wheels turned out, the hydraulic steering racks fail.

1. When the fastening bolts break or stretch, the mechanism begins to move back and forth, which also creates noticeable signs of wear.
2. The belt tension drops sharply.
3. Air leakage appears. Excessive accumulation of air inside the device leads to contamination.
4. Mechanical failure of the power steering pump is evident due to noise or a pressure gauge inserted into the power steering line.
5. Any dust seals are checked for leaks.
6. The rack and pinion assembly is tested for sounds typical of mechanical failure.
7. Input and output shafts are tested for reproduction.

This systematic approach will make it possible to diagnose equipment in a short time and will ensure that the entire system is checked both inside and outside.

Power steering components are affected by high pressure, temperature and speed.If built to meet or exceed OEM standards, they will be able to meet these criteria and ensure the longevity of the amplifier with an amplifier, but many auto shops offer the cheapest parts by default to keep the price down. They may function as normal, but are generally inferior in quality. When replacing the rack of a mechanism with an amplifier, you need to find out which class of parts is used, whether it is a good idea. To understand what the problem is, you need to remove and disassemble the rail.

1. Raising the front the car with a jack and secure it with a protective stand.
2. Before replacing the rail, the service technician prepares to work by noting the location of the parts and removing obstructing objects for access or removal.
3. The fluid for the GRU is being drained.
4. Remove the wheel and tire.
5. Pull out the cotter pin and unscrew the nut.
6. We separate the tie rod from the steering knuckle using a puller.
7. We loosen the bolts from the return oil pipe and disconnect it under pressure.
8. Remove the intermediate shaft from the clutch rack.
9. We loosen the bolts and nuts from the brackets.
10. Remove the steering rack from the right side of the car.

1. Mark the alignment of the traverse rod, clamping nut and the end of the connecting rod.
2. Loosen the clamping stud nut and then remove the rod.

1. Installing the nuts according to the previously marked markings.
2. Place the end of the bar and rotate it to align with the markings made earlier.
3. Tighten the clamping rod nut. Tightening torque: 69-78 Nm, 7.8-8.0 kg / m.
4. Install the steering rod on the bracket.

1. We install the rail to the right side of the car.
2. We tighten the bolts and nuts with the rail brackets. Tightening torque: 74-93 Nm, 7.5-9.5 kg / m.
3. Tighten the intermediate shaft bolt. Tightening torque: 21-26 Nm, 2.2-2.7 kg / m.
4. We reconnect the oil pipes and tighten the bolts under pressure. Tightening torque: 24-35 Nm, 2.4-3.6 kg / m.
5. Install the steering rod in the steering lever.
6. Tighten the nut and install a new cotter pin. Tightening torque: 59-78 Nm, 6.0-8.0 kg / m.
7. The wheels and tires are being installed.
8. The vehicle is lowered and all protective struts are removed from it.

For most

In vehicles, the power steering system will last over 100,000 miles before any malfunction occurs.

Mechanical failures and leaks are generally considered unacceptable if maintenance is carried out regularly in accordance with the manufacturer's requirements.

Retention of power steering fluid and contamination-free systems is key to ensuring long-term performance. Like any system that carries high pressure, it will eventually fail due to wear and tear, however it should perform well over the life of the vehicle.

So, dear, yesterday I went through the rail on the Kia Spectra, Izhevsk assembly, hydraulics.
Actually, in order. During a routine inspection of this car, leaks of power steering fluid from under the anthers of the rack were detected. It was decided to sort out, since all repair kits are available. Here is a list of purchased parts:

0K203 32 13X Steering rack repair kit

0K203 32 180A Steering rack repair kit

0K2A2 32 114 Steering rack bushing

0K203 32 155 Steering rack bushing

0K203 32 182 O-ring

0K203 32 185A Power steering oil seal

0K203 32 184A Steering rack oil seal

0K9A2 32 280 Tie rod end 2 pcs.

When working, I did not take a photo, tk. and without a camera the work was in bulk. I'll make a reservation, some spare parts were ordered in duplicate, because suppliers do not specify the composition of the repair kits. And do not pay attention to the names, as these parts were named by the supplier, in fact, these are O-rings, oil seals, rail stops and a stopper.

To begin with, we hang out the front of the car, substituting telescopic racks under the side members. We unscrew the wheels, protection, after that we proceed to drain the power steering fluid.We remove the clamp and the hose from the rail return line, put on the previously stored hose on the return line, and push it into the prepared container. After that, the assistant should turn the steering wheel from edge to edge. This will cause liquid to flow out of the tube. You need to twist until the liquid stops flowing. After the liquid has been drained, unscrew the ski, then unscrew the intake pipe and the catalyst, then unscrew the checkpoint rods, then remove the rear support, then unscrew the upper and lower steering shaft driveshaft and boot (this is all in the cabin), after which we unscrew the return pipes and supplying liquid to the rail, then unscrew the bracket for attaching the tubes to the rail, and loosen it so that it can spin freely on the rail. After that, we unscrew three nuts and one screw securing the rail to the body, unscrew the left bracket of the SPU, remove the boot from the passenger compartment, unscrew the union nut on the right side of the hydraulic cylinder, and remove the tube from it (this is to make it easier to remove). Remove the right rail fastening bracket, and remove the rail from the left stud. Now carefully pull out the rail through the right wheel well. Now you can iterate over.

After installation, the system must be pumped. Pour PSF into the tank, and gently turn the steering wheel from edge to edge five or six times. In this case, the level in the tank will go away a little. We start the engine, for 5 seconds, and turn it over again, adding PSF to the tank. We repeat until it stops bubbling in the tank, set the level to the maximum, check again for leaks in the system, put on the protection and wheels. Everything, you can go.

Hello dear motorists! Sometimes, unexpectedly, a feeling of "white" envy creeps in, when we read the words in the manuals of foreign automakers that the service life of a worm or a rack in a car's steering rack is designed for 14-15 years.

Calculated and ... so it really is: the steering rack does not fail. Naturally, subject to certain conditions, such as: the recommended service times for the steering rack, the use of recommended and high-quality oils, and the operation of the car on the appropriate roads.

And, if the first two points are quite feasible on the part of the car owner, then the third, alas, for us still remains a fabulous dream. Therefore, today we will consider the question of how to tighten the steering rack with our own hands.

Adjusting the steering rack is a simple procedure and is quite within the power of any driver. And in time it takes no more than an hour with all the preparatory measures. But, first, let's remember why and when the steering rack needs to be tightened.

From the steering rack device of the type: pinion-rack: the driver's force is transmitted to the wheels by means of a pinion (spur or helical), which is mounted on a bearing and interacts with a toothed rack.

Backlash-free engagement of the pinion and toothed rack is carried out thanks to the pressure springs.

The most common faults are play or knocking in the steering rack. The reasons for backlash or knocking can be:

• The fastening of the steering rack housing, steering bipod or the bracket for attaching the crankcase lever has weakened.
• Natural wear of the transmission pair: gear-rack.
• Violation of the adjustment of the gearing of the transmitting pair.
• Wear on the ball joints of the steering rods and so on.

If the gearing is incorrectly adjusted in the transmission pair, a tight rotation of the steering wheel can be observed. It is in this case that the steering rack adjustment is required, and, of course, topping up or changing the oil (grease) in the steering rack housing.

Immediately, I would like to warn you that tightening the steering rack may not solve the problem with backlash. The fact is that the degree of wear of the parts of the transmitting pair: gears and toothed rack is unknown to us and to you. Only an autopsy can show it. We're talking about the first lift.

If tightening the steering rack does not bring the desired result and the backlash or knocking does not disappear, then you need to sign up for an audience with a specialist.But, for now, we call a friend in the garage (you will need a partner for adjustment) and proceed to the tightening.

Tightening the steering rack on your own

• Adjustment is made by tightening the adjusting screw. It is located in the steering box (end cap).
• Ideal if you have a hole in your garage or an overpass on site. If not, then you can tighten the rail on jacks. Naturally, having strengthened the car after lifting on persistent "trestles".
• Before lifting the body with jacks, the front wheels are set straight (straight).
• The rudder backlash is measured by a backlash gauge (there are electronic ones, and there are also primitive old backlash gauges). GOST RF states that the backlash of the steering wheel cannot exceed 10 degrees.
• We tighten the adjusting screw slowly, systematically checking the steering wheel travel and the presence of backlash or knocking in the column.
• If it seems to you that the problem is solved, then conduct a running test. If, in the process of movement, after tightening you feel the "heaviness" of the steering wheel, then the adjusting screw will have to be slightly loosened.

The task of adjusting the steering rack is considered completed if: the play or knock has disappeared, and the steering wheel freely returns to the center position.

Repair cost with spare parts (rub.)

The safety of your Kia Spectra is unthinkable without such an important mechanism as the steering rack. If it breaks down, you have several possible options: repair the steering rack of the Kia Spectra with your own hands, completely replace this mechanism, or contact the help of a car workshop specialist. However, if you are confident in your own abilities, you can make repairs with your own hands, without resorting to the services of car service specialists.

To carry out the work on removing the steering rack of the Kia Spectra, you will need:

• heads 17 and 14
• spacious garage with a viewing hole or lift
• workbench
• vice.

In addition, buy a repair kit for your Kia Spectra modification.

Admire your work: indeed, repairing the Kia Spectra steering rack is not at all difficult if you have the appropriate experience. However, if you are a young driver and do not yet even have the basic skills of an auto mechanic, then you should undoubtedly contact the masters who will do it in the shortest possible time and at the highest level.

There is not a single car that does not have flaws. There are, however, those who have too many shortcomings, but Kia Spectra, fortunately, does not apply to them. She also does not apply to the models hotly adored by the public. It is grayish, nondescript, and, in addition to everything, is assembled at Izhmash by the assembly method. True, not for long, only four years, but they say that during all this time, 104 thousand and 700 sedans were sold in the country. The car was originally, according to ancient Korean tradition, was created for the domestic market and the US market. Since 1999, the car was sold in Korea for about 12 months, and after that it was released only for export.

In the photo - KIA Spectra, which, fortunately, has almost no flaws

Even the States were supplied with cheap sedans, but, as usual, these are completely different cars. On the American versions, 1.8-liter engines were installed, on ours - only 1.6. True, the Americans drove without hydraulic lifters, but the salons in those cars were completely different. An electric window was not installed on domestic Spectra, it was on Koreans and Americans. There was also a noticeable difference in trim levels, body colors, optics and base alloy wheels. An automatic transmission was installed on all Americans, but here it was optional and had several other characteristics and design differences.

Before repairing the Spectra, you need to buy it, and the prices today for models of six or seven years ago are very affordable. KIA Spectra with an automatic transmission will cost from 350 thousand, with a manual gearbox - from 300. Moreover, even the very first cars have not lost too much in price, which means the public loves them. But the hijackers are not very good, but despite this, the owners install modern security systems. If a new alarm is inattentively installed on an old Spectrum, there may be trouble with the electronic control unit. Its resource, by the way, is no more than 100 thousand, so this should be taken into account when buying a used KIA Spectra. But its resource can be extended if you do not allow burning of contacts and burnout of tracks on the board. To do this, at the first symptoms of ECU fatigue, you just need to check the contact group and occasionally tighten the contacts. So you can get rid of overheating and extend the life of the block. The cabin electronics unit, which was supplied in top-end configurations with power windows, can be easily burned with a clumsy installation of new security equipment, and negligence translates into the purchase of a new unit, which costs at least 4.5-5 thousand.

Video repair for replacing the timing belt with the KIA Spectra

The automatic transmission F4AEL-K, which was installed on expensive KIA Spectra trim levels, was assembled in China. If you need clarification, here they are. Firstly, when buying a car with automatic transmission, you should not be greedy for diagnostics, because later this can result in expensive repairs. Secondly, there were no high-quality spare parts for this box even then, and even more so today. The first signs of fatigue are the noisy operation of the planetary in the box and malfunctions, and then the failure of the forward clutch. Then the box goes into emergency mode and leaves only one, third gear, in which you can limp to the service station. But most often, repairs are limited to adjusting the rods, this is when the box switches from first to second with jerks. The nature of this malfunction is massive. There have never been any special complaints about the mechanical box, and it will pass the first 60 thousand with confidence. After that, it is necessary to check the oil level every 20 thousand, since the oil seals may already be ready for replacement.

Since we got only one 1.6-liter high-horsepower gasoline engine, we had to study it well. Like all Koreans of the time, the KIA Spectra had problems with the timing belt. Not so with the belt as with its resource. The Korean instruction spoke about the replacement regulations of 60 thousand km, in fact, the mileage should be halved if there is no desire to sort out and change the entire valve mechanism and cylinder head. Several years later, Izhmash revised the belt replacement regulations and reduced the indicator to 45 thousand. Thoughtful owners change the belt after 30 thousand, along with the rollers, which can howl already at 20 thousand mileage.

The timing belt is replaced by the owners of the KIA Spectra every 30 thousand km

On the first versions of the KIA Spectra, there were no problems with pomp, and on versions after 2006, it could already order to live a long time at 30 thousand mileage. And don't be light on your pump. This is a tricky thing, because when it gets jammed, it cuts off the teeth of the belt, as a result of which it folds the valves at best. And if you take these features into account, then, in general, the motors have shown themselves to be on the good side, the main thing is to change the oil and filter on time, not to start the timing belt. In addition, a firmware has been released for the engine management system, which eliminates sluggish acceleration and helps a little to save gas.

There is another little secret of the KIA Spectra. The plant refuses to install cabin filters in principle, although the Koreans have provided space for them. What this is connected with, with economy or greed is unknown, but only some time after buying a car it was possible to guess about the absence of a filter, without even disassembling the air duct system. An unpleasant smell and a full interior of dust themselves said that a filter was still necessary.Therefore, although not a word is written about this in the manual, it is worth installing it yourself. The part has a proprietary marking Spectra / Sephia / Shuma 0 K2N1 61 52X, but also fits from Kia Klarus 2.

The only trouble that can be expected from the steering rack is the characteristic gurgle in the power steering return line. There is a regulating jet, which is made sloppy, with notches and chamfers. If processed, the sounds will disappear immediately, and the steering is generally reliable. Like all cars of this class, the front struts must be replaced after 50-60 thousand km, and silent blocks, supports and bushings rarely make themselves felt earlier than 160-170 thousand km.

For its little money, the KIA Spectra has shown itself to be a fairly practical and reliable car, and if you follow the maintenance regulations, it will delight its owners for a long time with trouble-free operation.

- Repair of a steering rack on Kia Spectra

The steering gear on the Spectrum is almost completely unusable. The previous owner did a very good job on the car in the sense that there is practically no living space left of it. The body is in order, the interior seems to be nice too, but the suspension, engine and steering are in a disgusting state.

I wouldn’t buy myself such a car if I didn’t understand cars myself, otherwise I can repair it every day in my garage in my free time, and I have a lot of it. I myself make money on the Internet, so I take a rest in the garage. So, I have already tidied up the suspension and the engine, now I will change the steering mechanism.

We are preparing a set of wrenches, a special tool TORX T30, a puller for ball and a set of socket heads. We put the car over the inspection pit, pull the handbrake over ourselves. Then we put the steering wheel so that the wheels look straight ahead. Next, loosen the wheel bolts, raise the car, put stops and remove the right front wheel. Remove the engine compartment mudguard.

We find the terminal connection nut under the dashboard, turn it off. We separate the steering column together with the shank. We knock out the fingers of the ball ends, unscrew the fasteners of the pressure pipeline, take it to the side. We remove the seals, then we turn off the fasteners of the drain pipeline, we also take it to the side.

To prevent the working fluid from pouring out of the pipelines, they must be immediately sealed. We unscrew the remaining bolts and nuts, then install a new mechanism and assemble in the reverse order. In my case, I used not new parts, but used ones, but they are in excellent condition, so I have no doubt about the quality. After assembly, he started the car and tried to drive.

Now, if we compare it with the state in which the car was immediately after purchase and now, then these are two completely different vehicles. Now the work is not over yet, something is buzzing in the suspension, but I can handle this too, so we can assume that I didn’t save time and effort on repairs, but saved money, but the main reason was that it was interesting to me.

Steering rack Kia Spectra - the most important element of the entire system, so if it becomes unusable, then you need to fix the problem as soon as possible and solve it with the lowest financial costs. In some cases, of course, you can get by with a simple repair, but sometimes it becomes necessary to completely replace the steering rack with the Spectra, and then difficulties arise. There are two options for the development of events for two main cases: first, you are an experienced motorist, have been driving for a long time and are already savvy in matters of technical device. Well, great, then you can look under your vehicle yourself and try to determine the extent of the breakdown on your own. But there is another case: everyone was a beginner, so everyone knows that for an inexperienced person, the technical device of a modern machine is a dark forest, so you can't do without outside help.

The steering rack of the Kia Spectra, of course, can be repaired with a strong desire, but it takes a lot of effort, and sometimes it is even cheaper to buy a new element. When it comes to the buying process itself, you can turn to either disassembly or to official dealers. In the first case - you save a decent amount of money and, maybe, time, but in the second - you can be completely sure, firstly, in the quality of the purchase, and, secondly, that you will be given some guarantees. Yes, and one more thing: when buying steering rack kia spectra during disassembly, you will most likely have to carry out repair work on your own, which is extremely problematic for novice motorists, so if you do not have much experience, you can immediately contact a car service. It is clear what kind of repair or installation is here steering rack Spectrum will take extra money, but it's really worth it.

Everyone knows the saying that the miser pays twice. So it is here: some people in pursuit of this notorious "freebie" sometimes take too desperate steps, and then, as a result, there is simply no question of saving money and time resources. Trust the professionals if you are an inexperienced person and do not skimp on spending, because in the end everything can get even more expensive. The steering rack is a rather capricious part, so serious problems can arise here if you do not have repair experience, so it is better to entrust this business to someone who is fortunate enough to acquire more experience.

• the steering wheel is moving too tight;
• steering becomes problematic;
• from under the front suspension, a characteristic tapping is heard when performing maneuvers;
• reduction or complete absence of liquid in the tank as a result of a leak.

If you diagnosed similar "symptoms" in a personal vehicle, repair of the steering Kia Spectra most likely cannot be avoided.

The repair of the Kia Spectra steering rack is most often resorted to as a result of the development of teeth or a more extensive destruction of the worm pair - in this case, it and the bushings are replaced. The elements of the rail are also susceptible to corrosion - this can be corrected by completely disassembling and cleaning the damaged elements. Sometimes repairing the steering Kia Spectra requires correcting the stem or changing the oil seals.
