What Causes Slight Steering Wheel Stiffness During High-Speed Driving?
1 Answers
Possible causes include floor mats obstructing the steering column or issues with the steering angle sensor. The specific reasons and solutions for steering wheel stiffness are as follows: 1. When experiencing slight steering wheel stiffness during high-speed driving in hydraulic power steering vehicles, the issue is likely related to the power steering fluid - either contaminated fluid or air in the system can cause this phenomenon. 2. If the steering angle sensor lacks proper lubrication, it may become stuck, resulting in slight steering wheel stiffness. Solution: Minor steering wheel stiffness can often be resolved by adjusting the steering wheel left and right to return it to its original position.
