Golf Steering Wheel Repair 3 Practical Video

On our not-so-new Volkswagen Golf, the steering rack was completely useless. The problem has been visible for a long time and now is the time to fix it. We carry out the chimney log with our own hands, almost at home. Now directly on the steering gear. at the bottom, almost above the pedals, we separate the steering shaft mounts in order to unscrew them, sometimes it is necessary to remove the boot in the inner part.

The next step should be to remove the fluid, for this you need to remove the roof from the hydraulic fluid reservoir. From below under the car, we disconnect the hose leading to the power steering pump, and we drain the fluid from the system. We raise the car jack and place it on the pillows so you can remove the wheels. After removing the wheels, unscrew the nuts of the guide tips, the key to the tips is removed either using a special puller, or with hammer blows on the steering knuckle,

You must be careful not to damage the thread and anthers on the guides. You can now unscrew the fender attachment to the steering rack by holding the three bolts. The front can be unscrewed from below with a wrench or propeller shaft from above and the other two at the back. Raise the subframe slightly with the connector and remove the steering column mounting bolts. Do not try to remove the bolts from the subframe. You can now detach the passenger side bracket that secures the steering rack.

The top boot must be removed. steering rackso as not to break it when we lower the stretcher. Then loosen the subframe bolts at the front and rear. Make sure all items attached to the rail are disconnected. Now, finally, unscrew the previously loosened bolts, you need to remember them how. Lower the subframe slightly, about 5 centimeters, to remove the rail.

Video (click to play).

This step should be done with extreme caution. Unscrew the bolt and pull the gimbal out of the tie rod, it is now easy to remove the rail. The last operation of dismantling the rail. take it off subframe bolts, from the driver's side remove from the rear beam. Replace the unsuccessful old steering rack with a new one. You can use zip ties to secure the air tube between the anthers. After installing the new rail, immediately install the gimbal, we put on the groove and tighten the bolt.

Raising the steering rack a little, connect the propeller shaft of the mount and the steering shaft in the cab, we put on the boot. We connect the inlet hoses and hydraulics on site. Now, from the salon, we guide the rail to the fastening bolts on the stretcher, we fix it with a pre-installed rubber band under it.

I have not yet risen, but in the tyrante they write everywhere that you need to shoot.

Symptoms: knocks in the steering rack, manifested when driving through small irregularities (disease of all korollopodobnye with electric power steering).
Diagnosis of servicemen - replacing the rail (in practice, it does not help out for long and costs a lot).
Solution: replacing anything in the rail that can knock. And there are only two places knocking in such rails - the adjusting unit and in the area of the bushing located at the opposite end of the rail (in the case of right-hand drive cars - the left side of the rail). And since nothing needs to be changed in the adjusting unit, all repairs are reduced to replacing the factory bushing with a custom-made one.

Patients: Will VS 2002 1.5 L (electric power steering!)

We climb into the pedal assembly and remove the protection from the steering shaft, unscrew it by hand, and remove it easily:

We completely unscrew the bolt securing the intermediate shaft to the crosspiece:

IMPORTANT! Put the wheels straight, remove the key from the ignition, lock the steering wheel. This is done in order to prevent, after removing the rack, turning the steering wheel by a number of revolutions more than it should be. Otherwise, a break in the wires of the "snail" of the airbag and the resulting malfunction of the latter are inevitable.

We hang out in front of the car and throw off the wheels (front enough).

Next is the removal of the steering rack. It has been proven from our own experience that it is possible to unscrew the rail fasteners without additional disassembly, but pulling out the rail is very time consuming. Do not waste time, twist the stretcher - you will save a lot of time and effort.

But first - the steering tips: take out the cotter pin, unscrew the nut, hit the place indicated below with a sharp, biting hammer blow, and the finger falls out by itself (we do it with both sides

We unscrew the subframe, 4 bolts to the body, 3 bolts in the area of the rear engine mount and 3 nuts in the same place.

After that, the subframe, together with the rack, gently (if you planned to unscrew the last bolt correctly) lowers and hangs on the levers and the anti-roll bar. Everything - the rail at a glance: unscrew:

We remove and carry to the workbench

Let's start disassembling it:
1) Remove the rubber boot.

2) Take the 12 key and unscrew the bolt shown in the photo.

3) Remove the intermediate shaft.

4) Unscrew the lock nut (used a gas wrench)

5) Unscrew the clamping cup of the rack shaft.

Image - DIY steering rack repair Toyota Heis

6) Then we put on and fix the intermediate shaft again, then take out the entire shaft with the bearing with a light blow with a copper hammer on it.

7) Turning the rail over, disassemble the adjusting unit: unscrew the lock nut with a 41 key

8) Then we unscrew the adjusting cup using any flat object, take out the spring and the pressure piston.

9) Remove the left anther, very carefully so as not to break (we draw inside around the circumference of the anther with a non-sharp object)

10) Unscrew the left rod from the rail using keys 29 and 22.

11) On the back side, we loosen the large clamp and detach the boot.

12) Take the rolling pin out of the rail, put it aside.

13) We look at the rail from the left end - we see an aluminum hold-down washer, behind it is the notorious bushing.

14) We hook the washer with a hook and knock it out, then take out the sleeve.

Here it is - the sleeve, because of which all the ailments. )

For left hand drive

Modifying a pre-made PTFE bushing according to the attached drawing.

15) On the new sleeve, we make a longitudinal cut necessary for its compression and setting in place. We orient the cut in the direction of the car's movement - in this direction the rail experiences the least stress.

16) Lubricate the sleeve and gently straighten the sleeve, check the fit of the sleeve with the free end of the rolling pin.

17) Press in the aluminum washer with a suitable head. Insert the rolling pin into place. We insert the shaft into place, for this, with a 22 key, we swing the rolling pin around its axis and at the same time push the shaft - at a certain moment the gears are aligned and the shaft falls through. We tighten the clamping sleeve of the shaft until it stops, we counter it with a lock nut. We assemble the adjusting unit, tighten the adjusting cup until it stops and release it by 90 degrees, counter nut with a counter nut. Subsequently, the tightening torque can be adjusted on the machine after a test drive with a certain skill, the mechanism must be tightened until the steering wheel returns to the straight position when exiting the turn. Pull into place, anthers into place, tighten. Rail for stretcher, stretcher for cars. Near the rear (in relation to the rear of the car) fastenings of the subframe to the body there are holes on the body and on the subframe, the combination of which excludes the removal of the caster. (holes in the photo)

Tips to the levers, set the wheels straight, the steering wheel is straight from the very beginning. We pull everything in and climb into the salon. There we loosen the upper crosspiece, move the shaft between the crosspieces up and put the lower crosspiece on the intermediate shaft. We are tightening everything.Subsequently, you can similarly align the steering wheel if, when driving straight, the steering wheel looks slightly to the side.

It's just that when I was sorting out the rail, the verdict was announced that the current is coming to a kicker with one thrust, and when I went to make a descent, I was told that the full kicker had already arrived, and the knock strains me and the topic of the starter reassured me with a decision))). Yes, and I try not to screw up the typewriter))))

Comrades, advice is needed - a strange, quiet knock “knock-knock” “knock-knock” knock appeared in front. the car is coasting at low speed, the steering wheel is left and right, the car sways a little and “he” appears that this knock is both left and right. Quite recently, I replaced everything that was possible on the chassis, I began to sin on the steering rods.
can they tap so quietly and unpleasantly?

and there was also a completely unpleasant "clatter" in the steering wheel itself, the feeling that this clatter was straight on the airbag, took off the pillow, removed all the levers of the wipers and turn signals, got to the bearing, which is rolled on the shaft, but everything seems to be holding on dead there. a plastic sleeve, which I changed below on the shaft. Kardanchik, which in the cabin can not so "blur". but the sound is right at the very top. already broke my head, what could it be

Further, the bushing needs to be modified: This cut, when installed in the rail, must be positioned at the top and make sure that it does not fill with grease.

Car steering racks Steering Toyota Corolla How to repair the steering rack on your own Toyota Corolla photo report Full and detailed description of the rather complex process of repairing the steering rack with the creation of a new bushing

LABELS for search engines: TOYOTA COROLLA TOYOTA COROLLA STEERING RACK REPAIR STEERING RACK E12 E12 Hello everyone again! So the promised photo report on the repair of the steering rack is ready. Let the “old-timers” forgive me for repetitions, but in the photo report I have collected all the information necessary to repair the rail, starting with the drawing of the bushing and ending with the final adjustment. All "landmarks" right-left, front-rear are given relative to the driver.

All photos, including the special keys and bushings, are posted in the photo gallery. If the “followers” have any questions, then before asking them, read the previous messages. Maybe there are already answers for example: We need a special key for disassembling and adjusting the steering rack. And the steering rack bushing, made according to this drawing or ordered by the forum member Makar: Dimensions 24.9 mm; 31.1 mm; 32 mm must be made with the maximum possible accuracy and minimum roughness.

Ideally, the marks from the turning tool should be virtually indistinguishable. I would like to draw your attention to the dimensions of the sleeve, namely the diameters of 24.9 mm and 31.1 mm. Moreover, the utility of decreasing the inside diameter and increasing the outside diameter by 0. Therefore, STRICTLY adhere to the dimensions of the bushing as shown in the drawing. Further, the bushing must be reworked: 6 longitudinal cuts are made on the bushing with a hacksaw for metal, with a depth of approx. Then, with a clerical knife, we expand the cuts and give them a wedge shape, see.

We make one cut over the entire length of the sleeve and expand it by approx. This cut, when installed in the rail, must be positioned at the top and make sure that it does not fill with grease. It should look something like this: Before starting work, be sure to disconnect the battery.The first step is to remove the steering shaft cardan, while remembering that the so-called “snail” SRS AIRBAG is installed in the steering column, designed for 5 full revolutions: If exceeded, it will break and the “SRS” light will turn on.

When installing, after setting the wheels straight ahead, “open” the ignition switch and turning the steering wheel now to the right into a straight position - I throw on the cardan.

I check the number of turns left and right, if necessary, rearrange the cardan. As a result, the steering bar in the extreme positions becomes vertical, I don’t remember the number of revolutions, I just set the symmetry, and accordingly, the turning radius to the right and left will be the same.

Also, do not forget to unfasten the boot latches, it will look something like this: When working, follow safety precautions. And it's better to work together. To remove the steering rack, do the following: Unpin the nuts securing the steering tips to the steering knuckle, and with a sharp hammer blow, disconnect the steering tip.

When working, observe safety precautions, in particular, when unscrewing the bolts in the movement "away from you", keep your palm open, in this case, if the key comes off, you will not bump your fingers, oh, how many of them were broken In red and yellow circles, those bolts which must be unscrewed on the dorestyle.

At the weekend, at the technical inspection, the techies pointed out problems in the steering and also rusty wheels (I forgot to put on the hubcaps). Ugly. What does it matter to them if the rims are rusty or not. Well, not holes in them. One guy was deployed nearby in a Toyota with a crack in the windshield - from the top 10 cm long. We are waiting for the technical inspection from the gayts to be handed over to private traders. Maybe then the loot will not be paid to the left, tk. there will be a choice of where to go.And you have to deal with the helmsman. To begin with, I ordered the steering tips - they are only 500 rubles. in existential. I'll get it on Wednesday and watch it on the weekend.If you have experience in troubleshooting the steering rack, please speak up.The president

How to determine if you need to change tips and pull rods?
Yesterday I got into it, like there was no backlash, the anther of the tip is alive, the boot on the steering rod seems to be the same.
Brains can soar endlessly at a technical inspection, they are the same type of experts.Another question - the belt is stretched like normal (as in the ABC book), but when you turn the power steering pump, it turns quite easily (with the belt on).
And the steering wheel also spins in jerks if the engine is a little warmed up and you turn it on the spot. Then it seems to pass. What is the reason?I would be glad to tighten the belt, but it is hard to crawl up to the nuts, there is not enough space for the knob to rip the nut off. The first attempt has so far been unsuccessful.Group: Moderators

In general, I didn’t start experimenting in what I don’t understand - I drove into a service that deals with Toyota (a guarantee that they know at least something, and will not look like rams on the bottom).
We tightened the rail a little, tightened the belt tension, I took a paper such as an invoice about the work done (just in case, if the steering wheel gets rejected again) and as a result, the MOT was passed.
I had to put on the caps for a formality, and then take them off (they fly off, but there is no desire to fasten with clamps - all the same, it is necessary to put them on soon).I must say, a piece of paper was not required, I explained in words that the technician pulled up the steering wheel, while simultaneously controlling the wheel with his hand - and corrected the tick in the sheet.
So I recommend the method. It is better to pay service technicians who will do the right thing (if you cannot do it yourself) than loot from the back door at the inspection.Registration date 2013-05-25So, a fairly common malfunction in a car is a sudden knock on the steering rack. For cars Toyota Passo this phenomenon is quite widespread and belongs to the category of "childhood diseases".Three ways can be proposed for an elementary solution to this problem without replacing the entire steering rack. You need to know that knocking in 95% of cases occurs due to wear of the copper-graphite bushing. Here is what is known from the practice of this issue.To do this, in order to remove the worn out bushing, the entire rail must be disassembled. The most difficult thing is precisely in disassembling-assembling the steering rack, where two original keys may be required, which can be borrowed for a while from a universal set of keys of one of your friends. Give the removed bushing to any "adequate" turner who, according to the model, will be able to carve a similar one out of caprolon, maybe even from fluoroplastic. On average, the cost of such work costs 200-300 rubles.In order not to look for special keys for disassembling the rail, clamp the rail tightly in a vice so that the sleeve is directed upwards. Now turn the rack down to the maximum. You will see a small gap between the bushing and the rack stem. Here you will need 5-7 pre-prepared metal pins about 20 cm long and no more than 1 mm in diameter. Next, take a thin tap and drive these pins into the gap with minimal effort. Be careful when driving in the studs to avoid accidentally splitting the already fragile bushing material. Thus, while turning the rack rod, evenly distribute all the pins around the circumference of the inner bore of the bushing. Now the bushing will compress the rack rod more tightly (due to the studs), which will eliminate the need to replace the bushing and disassemble the entire steering rack. Such a simple manipulation of the bushing, which takes no more than 45 minutes, is enough for you for about 80-100 thousand kilometers without knocking on the steering rack. Agree, this is a lot and commensurate with the resource of the timing belt on most cars. This method of eliminating knocking in the steering rack is the simplest and most universal for steering racks of any car brands. In addition, this method is quite reliable.This method was tested by one of the owners of a Toyota car. Passo, which assures that there is no need to grind a duplicate of the bushing due to the complete identity of this bushing with the bushing from the old Tavria car. Instead of special keys to disassemble the steering rack, he used a universal bicycle key with several horns. True, he had to undermine this key a little. According to this car owner, the budget for eliminating knocking on the rail in this way was 150 rubles.The described methods of eliminating knocking in the steering rack of a car Toyota Passo does not claim to be "the ultimate truth" and can be recommended for owners of this vehicle on a budget.Time zone: UTC + 3 hours [Daylight Saving Time]So I decided to try to post pictures.
Roughly a year ago, a rail flowed, it seems even dear, decided to buy a new one. The choice was on the firm General Ricambi at a price of 18,000 rubles apiece. After replacing it with the purchased rail, I washed my removed one, examined it and decided to disassemble it (especially since they wrote on the forum that the ZF was not demountable). An autopsy showed that the leak was due to corrosion of the rack shaft. Corrosion occurred as a result of leakage of protective covers, becausewhen replacing the steering rods, instead of the factory (iron) clamps (those on the rack housing), I installed plastic clamps. It was through them that water seeped, which led to corrosion.
Later, after bitter experience, I install metal clamps (those that are tightened with a screw).
The reason for removing the rack and its bulkhead: when you take the rack shaft and wiggle it from side to side, it will backlash.
I do not consider removing the steering rack, because has already been chewed.When disassembling the rail, we need the following tool:
- key 12 (for unscrewing the tubes)
- head 17 (for unscrewing the rail guide shaft)
- hexagon 6 (for unscrewing the worm body)
- flat-blade screwdriver (to remove the retaining ring)Inspection and rejection of parts
I must say right away that I decided to grind the shaft of the rack, which is prone to corrosion. electroplating didn't help. The diameter of the shaft was originally 26 mm. I got 24 mm. since mud..la turner when grinding the shaft by 25 mm. weakened it in some places, after which it, the rail, leaked in certain positions of the steering wheel. But after grinding 24 mm everything is OK.
Support bushings (2 pcs) and oil seals have undergone replacement and modernization. These are the drawings of the bushings I gave to the turner.In the original, oil seals are 26 * 35 * 7.
So the sleeve that is in the sleeve. The photo shows which one was installed in the original and which one I installed.

Sizes of homemade bushings

The second bushing (the one located in the bowels of the rail body)
I just increased the thickness of the bushings.

I will make a reservation right away that all the increases in the thickness of the bushings did not affect the normal operation of the rail. in the case there was a depth margin at the place where the sleeve was installed, and in the sleeve there was the entire inner part of the sleeve. The only moment is IMPORTANT in the sleeve, the machined sleeve should not protrude (it is better not to reach 3-5 mm to the point of contact of the steering rod apple with the sleeve), otherwise when the steering wheel is turned all the way to the right with the rod apple, this sleeve will push inward
I did not change all other parts (rubber rings, etc.). They are up to par.
Moreover, when installing the inner sleeve and the oil seal, you will need another sleeve (so as not to spoil the oil seal during pressing) with dimensions of 26 * 34 * 6-10 mm. (The thickness does not matter. The thicker, within reasonable limits, the bodies are more reliable) Its role will be shown below.

Modders, delete this topic on HFIG as dangerous.

These “nuts” are NOT for adjustments. Instead of thoughtlessly interfering with the critical steering assembly, it was necessary to properly repair or replace it.
Your advice from the category “Put a piece of nail instead of a fuse in the circuit”.

Dear Khoja_Nasreddin!
I'm sure you have to substantiate your answer! Why it is impossible to regulate these "nuts" and what exactly they are made for. Perhaps you are right and it would be better for me to spend 16,000 rubles on a new steering rack and about 5 thousand rubles. to replace it? Indeed, in any service where I contacted and to official dealers, the answer is the same - change the rail. Although much cheaper and easier to do as I described.
If you delve into the details of production and technology, modern production of cars and technologies for their production are arranged in such a way that any car will last no more than 5 years. Otherwise, the automobile business is simply not profitable. One more thing! Even if you order a new steering rack or change it under warranty, they send you not a new one from the assembly line, but restored at the factory. That's the way my friends are! And therefore, everyone must decide for himself which path will be best for him.

The topic of repairing the steering rack is still relevant on our forum. So questions are poured into our "discoverers" Schnapps and Amigo33... And they, as far as possible, answer. Or give good links to resources where this topic is discussed in detail.
One of these resources is the service station "AUTOSTAR" from the city of Chita. And the author of this material is Sergey Kalashnikov. Thank God that there are still people ready to share their skills.

Do-it-yourself steering rack tightening

Experienced motorists know that the average service life of a steering rack varies from 12 to 15 years. Similar numbers are often indicated in the technical documentation for the car. But these values will only be relevant in cases where the vehicle is operated correctly: recommended and high-quality oils are used, the racks are serviced in specialized services, the car drives on flat roads.

In all other cases, car owners invariably face the question of how to tighten the steering rack with their own hands. This is quite expected, since our compatriots have to drive exclusively on potholed roads. In this case, it is no longer possible to do without regular car repairs. Pulling up or adjusting is a type of such work.

Before starting any repair work in the car, it is necessary to find out the principle of functioning of this or that mechanism. The steering rack is needed to transfer the physical forces applied by the driver when turning the steering wheel to the helical gear located on the bearing. The pressure springs ensure good contact between the pinion and the rack.

Adjusting the steering rack is a simple task in its essence, and any driver can handle it. On average, this procedure takes from 1 to 2 hours, taking into account the implementation of preparatory measures. When is such a facelift required?

Distributor housing wear

In the overwhelming majority of cases, tightening the steering rack is required if there is a knock and play in this mechanism. Nevertheless, it is necessary to be aware that such repairs do not always help. These malfunctions can signal the banal wear of a gear or a toothed rack, its individual parts.

Tapping and pronounced play in the steering rack often occurs for the following reasons:

the transmitting pair (the zone of its engagement) requires adjustment, adjustment;
there is a weakening of the fixation of the arm of the lever, the housing of the steering system, the bipod;
natural wear of parts, ball joints.

A well-adjusted steering mechanism will save you from any tapping, and the comfort from driving a car of age.Therefore, if you notice that the steering wheel of the car turns tight, you should not limit yourself to tightening the corresponding device, it is strongly recommended to add grease to the crankcase.

First of all, we focus on the fact that in order to adjust the steering rack with your own hands, you should clearly follow a certain sequence of actions. But such efforts are far from always crowned with success, since the reason may lie in the physical wear and tear of the transmitting pair. Conclusions can be made solely on the fact of opening the gear rack and the gear located near it. Can this mechanism be tightened up? Let's consider how to correctly perform the first adjustment in stages.

note! If your intervention in the steering rack mechanism does not bring the desired effect, and the problems remain, contact the service station for help without delay.

The adjustment is carried out by correcting the adjustment screw. It is located in the end cover of the steering gear.
All work can be carried out exclusively after fixing the car on a lift (you can use jacks, ideally, drive the car into a garage with a pit). The front wheels of the vehicle should be straight, as level as possible.
The steering rack adjustment is shown in cases where the steering wheel play is 10 degrees or more (you can determine the corresponding value using an electronic play meter).
Tightening work is carried out as slowly as possible. Each step is rechecked for knocking and steering.
If, according to the objective feelings of the person carrying out the facelift, the problem was eliminated, it makes sense to test the car on the move. In some cases, after tightening, there may be a tight steering wheel movement. If this is observed, it is necessary to loosen the adjustment screw.

As practice shows, after the manipulations done, the traction of the car's rail is restored, the characteristic tapping and backlash disappear. You can test for the return of the rudder to its original, center position, the applied forces. The detail we have considered is one of the most important mechanisms of a vehicle, which determines the smoothness of the ride, ease of use and safety for the driver and his passengers.
