Motor Vehicle Maintenance & Repair Asked by djsony90 on December 23, 2020
Sorry for my English,
I had a problem with my power steering rack that had some fluid leaks and some noise when the fluid level was down. I never used the car without fluid.
Except the steering noise and the oil leak, the steering wheel was easy to move.
I brought the car to the mechanic yesterday and he changed the steering rack, but now the steering wheel is very hard to move mostly when the car is stopped.
The mechanic told me that maybe the new rack needs 2 – 3 days and it will be better. If it doesn’t improve then it will be necessary to change the Power Steering Pump but he doesn’t look so sure that it will fix the problem and I was thinking that with the old rack the power steering pump was OK. This is my first car and I am already hating it because I spent a lot of money repairing it.
Except for burning this car, does somebody have an idea or suggestion?
Thanks in advance.
That a new rack or rebuilt . either way it's either been tighten way to much if it's s remanufactured or if it's used it's just no good .you should have been able to turn it all way right then all way left once or twice that should have bleed air out .must are self bleeding like that anyway and after should have been able to turn with two finger's.if your pump turned other rack sure should turned that one. I would change it back to other one one that pulls either way inner tie rod ins out of adjustment or wore out Just my opinion but have been in a few rebuilds on them .good luck hope you get it straightened out.
