What are the reasons for a heavy BMW steering wheel?
1 Answers
BMW steering wheel heavy reasons are as follows: 1. Dirty power steering fluid: Power steering fluid is the force transmission medium. If the fluid is dirty, it will cause poor circulation, making steering difficult. In more severe cases, the power steering pump may produce a "buzzing" sound. 2. Low or leaking power steering fluid: Insufficient power steering fluid is equivalent to having no power assistance. Check the relevant systems for any signs of fluid leakage. Focus on inspecting the power steering fluid reservoir, power steering hoses, and steering gear. 3. Engine power steering belt too loose or too tight: Or the belt may be worn out. The tightness can be adjusted, but a worn belt must be replaced. 4. Overly tight or poorly lubricated steering system bearings: Issues such as overly tightened or insufficiently lubricated tie rod ends, bent steering shaft or sleeve causing jamming, etc. These are mechanical failures of the steering system.
