What Causes Noise in the Steering Gear?
1 Answers
Reasons for noise in the steering gear: Lack of Lubrication: If there is a lack of lubrication in the screws inside the steering wheel, you need to remove the steering wheel cover and add lubricating oil. This should allow smooth movement in the track and pivot areas. Steering Gear Malfunction: The steering gear might also malfunction. Normally, if the steering wheel is turned too sharply while turning, it puts a greater load on the steering gear, leading to severe wear and resulting in abnormal noises. It is recommended to inspect and replace the faulty components. Insufficient Tire Pressure: Uneven tire pressure in the left front or right front tire can cause the car to pull to one side, leading to unbalanced wheel bearings, misaligned steering gear, and resulting in abnormal noises and pulling.
