Posted - 13 Jun 2011 : 5:28:21 PM Replaced a leaking power steering pump & a few days later suddenly have strange noise that appears to be coming from around the rack pinion area. When steering wheel returns to centre from right turn there is a "crack" noise from the rack. No problem when turning the steering wheel to the left. Only requires small movement off centre to cause the noise & only happens with right turn of the steering wheel. Other than noise, power steering functions ok. Rack is reconditioned replacement, 12 months old. Very strange, any suggestions? |

Posted - 15 Jun 2011 : 12:01:09 PM Think problem is related to new pump. The 20 year, 400,000k original pump output pressure was probably a bit low compared to that of the new one & this has highlighted an issue with the control valve in the "reconditioned" rack. As it only happens when turning the steering under high load eg stationary or moving very slowly, I will delay servicing the rack until I acquire the bits to do it myself. Stuff paying someone else for another reconditioned rack. |
