Golf steering wheel repair 3 practical video

On our not-so-new Volkswagen Golf, the steering rack was completely useless. The problem has become noticeable for a long time, and now it is time to solve it. We carry out a chimney log with our own hands in almost home conditions. Now right on the steering gear. at the bottom, almost above the pedals, we separate the steering shaft mounts to unscrew them, sometimes it is necessary to remove the anther in the inside.

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 machine, disconnect the hose leading to the power steering pump, and we drain the fluid from the system. We lift the car jack and place it on the cushions 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 with a special puller or with hammer blows on the steering knuckle,

You must be careful not to damage the thread and the dusters on the guides. You can now unscrew the fenders to the steering rack by holding the three bolts. The front can be unscrewed from the bottom with a wrench or a gimbal at the top and two others at the back. Raise the subframe slightly using the connector and unscrew the steering rack mounting bolts. Do not attempt to remove the bolts from the subframe. You can now remove the bracket on the passenger side that secures the steering rack.

It is necessary to remove the anther located on top steering rackso as not to break it when we lower the subframe. Then loosen the subframe bolts front and rear. Make sure all items attached to the rail are detached. Now, finally, unscrew the previously loosened bolts, you need to remember how. Slightly, about 5 centimeters, lower the subframe to remove the rail.

Video (click to play).

This step should be done with extreme caution. Unscrew the bolt and pull the cardan out of the tie rod, now it's easy to remove the rail. The last operation of dismantling the rail. take it off subframe bolts, on the driver's side, remove from the rear beam. Replace the failed 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 cardan, we put on the groove and screw the bolt.

Raising the steering rack a little, connect the mount cardan shaft and the steering shaft in the cab, we put on the boot. We connect inlet hoses and hydraulic branches on site. Now from the cabin we direct the rail onto the fixing bolts on the stretcher, we fix it with a rubber band pre-installed under it.

I haven't gotten up yet, but the tyrant says everywhere to shoot.

Symptoms: knocking in the steering rack, which manifests itself when driving through small bumps (a disease of all Corollas with electric power steering).
The diagnosis of servicemen is the replacement of the rail (in practice, it helps out for a short time and costs a lot).
Solution: replacing everything in the rail that can knock. And there are only two places in such rails - the adjusting unit and in the area of \u200b\u200bthe sleeve 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, the entire repair comes down 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, it is unscrewed by hand, it can be removed easily:

We completely unscrew the bolt that secures the intermediate shaft to the cross:

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

We hang out in front of the car and take off the wheels (the front ones are enough).

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

But first - the steering tips: we take out the cotter pin, unscrew the nut, with a sharp biting blow of the hammer we hit the place indicated below, 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 \u200b\u200bthe rear engine mount and 3 nuts in the same place.

After that, the subframe, along with the rail, gently (if you planned to unscrew the last bolt correctly) lowers and hangs on the levers and anti-roll bar. Everything - the rail is in full view: unscrew:

We remove and carry to the workbench

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

2) We take the key for 12 and unscrew the bolt indicated in the photo.

3) Remove the intermediate shaft.

4) Unscrew the locknut (we used a gas wrench)

5) Unscrew the clamping glass of the rack shaft.

Image - Do-it-yourself steering rack repair toyota highs

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

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

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

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

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

11) On the reverse side, relax the large clamp and unfasten the boot.

12) We take out the rolling pin from the rail, put it aside.

13) We look at the rail from the left end - we see an aluminum pressure washer, behind it - 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 ailments. )

For left hand drive

We are modifying a prefabricated PTFE bushing according to the attached drawing.

15) On the new sleeve, we make a longitudinal cut, which is necessary for its compression and putting into place. We orient the cut in the direction of the direction of movement of the car - in this direction the rail experiences the least load.

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

17) With a suitable head, we press in the aluminum washer. We put the rock in place. We insert the shaft into place, for this, with a key of 22, we swing the rolling pin around its axis and at the same time push the shaft - at a certain moment the gears are combined and the shaft falls through. We twist the clamping cup of the shaft until it stops, lock it with a lock nut. We assemble the adjusting assembly, tighten the adjusting cup until it stops and release it 90 degrees, lock it with a lock nut. Subsequently, the tightening torque can be adjusted on the car after a test drive with a certain skill, the mechanism must be tightened to a state where, when exiting a turn, the steering wheel itself returns to a straight position. Thrust into place, anthers into place, tighten. Rail on the subframe, subframe to the car. 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 attract everything and climb into the salon. There we weaken the upper cross, move the shaft between the crosses up and put the lower cross on the intermediate shaft. We are tightening everything.Subsequently, you can similarly align the steering wheel if, when driving straight ahead, 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 was coming to a kick with one thrust, and when I went to make a gathering, they told me that the thrust had already come full, and the knock was annoying me and the starter topic was encouraging with a decision))). Yes, and I try not to miss the typewriter))))

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

and there was also a completely unpleasant “rattling” in the steering wheel itself, the feeling that this rattling was right on the airbag, I removed the pillow, removed all the wiper and turn signal levers, got to the bearing, which is rolled on the shaft, but everything seems to be holding dead there. plastic sleeve, which is lower on the shaft changed. Cardan, which in the cabin cannot “blink” like that. but the sound is right at the top. already broke his head, what could it be

Opskaem subframe beam Well, the first stage behind, more interesting. The diagnosis of servicemen - replacing the rail in practice helps out for a short time and costs a lot. Next, the sleeve needs to be modified: This cut, when installed in a rail, must be positioned at the top and ensure that it is not filled with grease.

Toyota Corolla steering rack How to repair the steering rack yourself Toyota Corolla photo report A complete and detailed description of the rather complicated steering rack repair process with the creation of a new bushing

TAGS for search engines: TOYOTA COROLLA TOYOTA COROLLA STEERING RACK REPAIR STEERING RACK E12 E12 Hello again everyone! 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 sleeve, ending with the final adjustment. All “landmarks” right-left, front-rear are given relative to the driver.

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

Ideally, the marks from a turning tool should be almost indistinguishable. I draw your attention to the dimensions of the sleeve, namely the diameters of 24.9 mm and 31.1 mm. Moreover, the usefulness of reducing the inner diameter and increasing the outer diameter by 0. Therefore, STRICTLY adhere to the dimensions of the sleeve according to the drawing. Next, the sleeve needs to be finished: On the sleeve, 6 longitudinal cuts are made with a hacksaw, approx. Then, with a clerical knife, we expand the cuts and give them a wedge shape, see Fig.

We make one cut for the entire length of the sleeve and expand it to approx. This cut, when installed in a rail, must be positioned at the top and ensure that it is not filled with grease. It should look something like this: Before starting work, be sure to disconnect the battery.First of all, you need to remove the steering shaft cardan shaft, while remembering that the so-called “snail” SRS AIRBAG is installed in the steering column, designed for 5 full turns: If it is exceeded, it will break and the “SRS” light will light up.

When installing, having previously set the wheels straight, I “open” the ignition lock and turning the steering wheel now to the right in a straight position - I put on the cardan.

I check the number of revolutions 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 latches of the anther, it will look something like this: When working, follow the safety precautions. And it's better to work together. To remove the steering rack, do the following: We 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 knock your fingers oh, how many of them were broken In the red and yellow circles, those bolts which need to be unscrewed on the dorestyle.

Thanked: 304 timesYes, a very important topic. At the weekend, at the technical inspection, techies pointed out problems in the steering and also rusty wheels (I forgot to put on the caps). FREAKS. What difference does it make to them whether the wheels are rusty or not. Well, there are no holes in them. One man was deployed nearby in a Toyota with a crack in the windshield - from the top 10 cm long. We are waiting for the MOT to be handed over from the gays to private traders. Maybe then the loot will not be paid to the left, because will have a choice of where to go.And you need to deal with the steering. To begin with, I ordered steering tips - they are only 500 rubles. in existential. I'll get it on Wednesday and watch it over the weekend.If you have experience troubleshooting the steering rack - please speak out.The president

Thanked: 304 timesGood evening!
How to determine whether it is necessary to change the tips and tighten the rods?
Yesterday I climbed, like there is no backlash, the anther of the tip is alive, the anther on the steering rod seems to be the same.
At the technical inspection, brains can soar endlessly, they are like experts.Another question - the belt seems to be tensioned normally (as in the ABC book), but when turning the power steering pump, it turns quite easily (with the belt on).
And the steering wheel turns in jerks if the engine is not warm enough and you turn it on the spot. Then it seems to pass. What is the reason?I would be happy to tighten the belt, but it’s hard to get to the nuts, there is not enough room for a wrench to break the nut. The first attempt has so far been unsuccessful.Group: Moderators

Thanked: 304 timesGreetings!
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 they won’t look at the bottom like sheep).
They tightened the rail a little, tightened the belt tension, I took a paper like an invoice for the work done (just in case the steering was rejected again) and as a result, MOT was passed.
I had to put on the caps for pro forma, and then take them off (they fly off, but there is no desire to fasten them with clamps - anyway, it’s necessary to put them on soon).I must say, I didn’t need a piece of paper, I verbally explained that the techie pulled up the rail, smoked the steering wheel, while controlling the wheel with his hand - and corrected the tick in the sheet.
So I recommend this method. It's better to pay servicemen who will do the right thing (if you can't do it yourself) than having money from the back door at the inspection.Date of registration 2013-05-25So, a fairly common malfunction in a car is a sudden knock in the steering rack. For cars Toyota passo this phenomenon is quite common and belongs to the category of "childhood diseases".We can offer three ways to solve this problem elementary 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 bushing, it is necessary to disassemble the entire rail. The most difficult thing lies precisely in the disassembly-assembly of the steering rack, where two original keys may be required, which can be borrowed for a while from the 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 you a similar one from caprolon, you can even from fluoroplast. On average, the cost of such work costs 200-300 rubles.In order not to look for special keys for parsing the rail, clamp the rail tightly in a vise so that the sleeve is pointing up. Now turn the rack down as far as possible. You will see a small gap between the bushing and the rack stem. Here you will need 5-7 pre-prepared metal studs about 20 cm long and no more than 1 mm in diameter. Next, take a thin tap and, with minimal effort, drive these studs into the resulting gap. Be careful when driving in the studs so as not to accidentally split the already fragile material of the sleeve. Thus, turning the rod of the rack, evenly distribute all the studs around the circumference of the inner hole of the bushing. Now the bushing will more tightly compress the rack rod (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, will be enough for you for about 80-100 thousand kilometers without knocking in the steering rack. Agree, this is a lot and is 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 versatile for steering racks of any car brand. 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 bushing due to the complete identity of this bushing with the bushing from an old Tavria car. Instead of special wrenches for disassembling the steering rack, he used a universal bicycle wrench with several horns. True, he had to sharpen this key a little. According to this car owner, the budget for the cost of eliminating a knock in the rail in this way amounted to 150 rubles.Described ways to eliminate 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 car with a limited budget.Timezone: UTC + 3 hours [DST]So I decided to try and post pictures.
Roughly a year ago, a rake flowed, it even looks like homedecided to buy a new one. The choice rested on the company 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 is non-separable). An autopsy showed that the leak was due to corrosion of the rack shaft. Corrosion occurred due to leakage of protective covers, tk.when replacing the steering rods, instead of the factory (iron) clamps (those on the rack housing), I installed plastic clamps. It was through them that some water seeped through, which led to corrosion.
In the future, after bitter experience, I install metal clamps (those that are tightened with a screw).
The reason for removing the rail and its bulkhead: when you take the rail shaft and shake it from side to side, it plays.
I don’t consider removing the steering rack, because. has already been chewed up.When disassembling the rail, we need the following tool:
- a key for 12 (for unscrewing the tubes)
- head 17 (for unscrewing the rail shaft guide)
- hexagon 6 (for unscrewing the worm body)
- Flat-bladed screwdriver (for removing the retaining ring)Inspection and culling of parts
I must say right away that the rail shaft, which was subject to corrosion, decided to grind it, because. electroplating did not help. The original shaft diameter is 26 mm. I got 24 mm. because mud..la turner when grinding the shaft by 25 mm. loosened it in some places, after which it, the rail, leaked in certain positions of the steering wheel. But after grinding at 24 mm everything is OK.
Support bushings (2 pieces) 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 26 * 35 * 7.
So the sleeve, which is in the sleeve. The photo shows which one was installed in the original and which one I installed.
Image - Do-it-yourself steering rack repair toyota highs

Dimensions of homemade bushings

The second sleeve (the one that is located in the bowels of the rack housing)
I just increased the thickness of the bushings.

I’ll 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 any way, because. in the body there was a margin in depth at the installation site of the sleeve, and in the sleeve of the place the entire inner part of the sleeve. The only moment IMPORTANT in the sleeve, the turned sleeve should not protrude (it is better not to reach 3-5 mm to the point of contact of the tie 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 go inside
All other parts (rubber rings, etc.) did not change. They are in good condition.
Moreover, when installing the inner bushing and the stuffing box, you will need another bushing (so as not to spoil the stuffing box when pressing in) with dimensions of 26 * 34 * 6-10 mm. (thickness does not matter. the thicker, within reasonable limits, the bodies are more reliable) Below will be shown its role.

Mods, please delete this thread as dangerous.

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

Dear Khoja_Nasreddin!
I'm sure you should justify 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 applied 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 their production technologies are arranged in such a way that any car will last no more than 5 years. Otherwise, the automotive business is simply not profitable. One more thing! Even if you order a new steering rack or change it under warranty, they send it to you not new from the assembly line, but restored at the factory. Such is the case my friends! And so everyone must decide for himself which path is best for him.

The topic of repairing the steering rack is still relevant on our forum. So questions are pouring in to our “pioneers” Schnapps and Amigo33. And they respond as soon as possible. Or give good links to those 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 who are ready to share their skills.

Editor's note: I hope the moderators of our site will not accept thanks for advertising.

Do-it-yourself steering rack tightening

Experienced motorists know that the average life of a steering rack varies from 12 to 15 years. Similar figures are often indicated in the technical documentation for the machine. But these values will be relevant in cases where the vehicle is operated correctly: recommended and high-quality oils are used, the rails are serviced in specialized services, the car drives on smooth 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 roads with potholes. In this case, regular car repairs are no longer enough. Pulling up or adjusting is a type of such work.

Before starting any repair work in the machine, it is necessary to find out the principle of functioning of a particular 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. Clamping springs guarantee high-quality contact between the pinion and the rack.

Adjusting the steering rack is an inherently simple task, and any driver can handle it. On average, this procedure takes from 1 to 2 hours, taking into account the implementation of preparatory measures. In what cases is such a tightening required?

Deterioration of the distributor housing

In the vast majority of cases, tightening the steering rack is required if there is knocking and play in this mechanism. However, you need to be aware that such repairs do not always help. These malfunctions may signal a banal wear of a gear or a gear rack, its individual parts.

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

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

A well-adjusted steering mechanism will eliminate any tapping, and the comfort of driving an aged car. Therefore, if you notice that the steering wheel of the car turns tightly, you should not limit yourself to tightening the corresponding device, it is strongly recommended to add lubricant 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 by no means always crowned with success, since the reason may lie in the physical wear of the transmitting pair. Conclusions can be drawn solely on the fact of opening the gear rack and the gear located near it. Is it possible to tighten this mechanism? Consider how to properly 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 without delay.

Adjustment is carried out by adjusting the adjustment screw. It is located in the end cover of the steering mechanism.
All work can be carried out only 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 straight as possible.
Steering rack adjustment is shown in cases where the steering play is 10 degrees or more (you can determine the appropriate value using an electronic backlash meter).
Tightening work is carried out as slowly as possible. Each stage is rechecked for knocking and steering.
If, according to the objective sensations of the person conducting the tightening, the problem has been eliminated, it makes sense to test the car on the go. In some cases, after tightening, a tight steering wheel may be observed. If this is observed, it is necessary to loosen the adjustment screw.

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