Can the Audi A4L steering gear be repaired if water enters it?

[EllieDella]

Audi steering gear can be repaired if water enters it. Device Classification: There are roughly three types of power steering devices currently on the market: electric motor power steering, rack and pinion hydraulic power steering, and electro-hydraulic power steering. Steering Gear Maintenance: Inspect the spool valve to ensure it functions properly. If the gap is too large and it cannot close tightly, replace the new steering screw and spool valve; check the sealing ring on the power piston and the sealing effect of the intermediate sealing ring in the radial groove of the valve body. Replace with new parts if necessary. Also, check the surface of the oil cylinder for any damage; inspect whether the ball and seat of the one-way valve are sealed. If they cannot close tightly due to dirt, clean them thoroughly.
