The reason for the clicking sound when turning the steering wheel to the limit while reversing is: there is abnormal noise in the tire area, which may be caused by issues with the brake pads or brake discs. When the driver turns the steering wheel to the limit, the pressure of the power steering pump will increase instantaneously. Under overload conditions, internal stress will be generated within the pump body, but this stress has nowhere to release, so it can only impact the oil seal of the oil reservoir and the rubber sleeve of the steering gear. Over time, this can lead to oil leakage from the hoses and aging of the rubber sleeve. In severe cases, oil leakage may cause damage to the power steering pump. The abnormal sound produced when the steering wheel is turned to the limit is actually caused by the resistance of the hydraulic oil. The steering wheel is a wheel-shaped device used to control the direction of cars, ships, airplanes, etc. Its function is to convert the force applied by the driver to the edge of the steering wheel into torque, which is then transmitted to the steering shaft.
