What Causes the Steering Wheel Noise in Hyundai Vehicles?
1 Answers
Here are the specific reasons for the steering wheel noise in Hyundai vehicles: 1. Turn signal return sound: When turning on the turn signal while steering, the noise may come from the rebound clip of the automatic turn signal return mechanism, which is a normal occurrence. 2. Steering column dust cover noise: If the noise comes from below the steering wheel, it may be caused by the steering column dust cover. Lack of lubrication in the dust cover can create friction noise. Applying some grease inside the dust cover can resolve this issue. 3. Noise from inside the steering wheel: This could be due to the airbag clock spring inside the steering wheel. Removing the steering wheel and applying grease to the clock spring can fix the problem. Note: Disconnect the airbag fuse before removing the steering wheel to prevent accidental airbag deployment. 4. Stabilizer bar noise: Check if the stabilizer bar bushings are loose or damaged. Loose or damaged stabilizer bar bushings can cause noise not only when turning the steering wheel but also when driving on uneven roads. Loose stabilizer bar bushings can be fixed by adding shims.
