What Causes the Steering Noise in Geely Boyue?
1 Answers
Steering noise in Geely Boyue may be caused by the following reasons: 1. Noise from the damaged rebound spring of the turn signal switch: If a squeaking sound occurs only after using the turn signal switch and then turning the steering wheel, it is likely the sound from the rebound spring of the turn signal auto-return mechanism. This sound is normal and is designed for the convenience of the driver. 2. Noise from the steering column dust cover: Check the steering column dust cover. If the dust cover lacks lubrication, it can produce a dry friction sound. Applying some grease inside the dust cover will eliminate this noise. 3. Noise from the steering column universal joint: If a 'squeaking' sound comes from below the steering wheel when turning it, it might be from the universal joint in the steering column. Lubricating the universal joint with grease can help. 4. Noise from the dry clock spring (spiral cable): If the noise comes from inside the steering wheel when turning it, it is often caused by a dry clock spring inside the steering wheel. 5. Noise from the shock absorber top bearing: If the top bearing of the shock absorber is noisy, applying some grease to it can help. 6. Noise from loose or damaged stabilizer bar bushings: Check if the stabilizer bar bushings are loose or damaged. Loose or damaged bushings can cause noise not only when turning the steering wheel but also when driving on uneven roads. Loose bushings can be fixed by adding shims.
