STEERING 23 Concern Cause Remedy Cupped tyres 1. Excessive tyre or wheel run out. 2. Tyres out of balance 1.Replace wheel or tyre 2.Adjust, balance or replace tyre Hard steering 1. Disturbed toe 2. Rack and pinion movement bind- ing 3. Tyres not adequately inflated 4. Bind in steering column 5. Bind in tie rod end ball studs or lower ball joints 6. Vehicle overloaded 7. Oversized tyres 8. Rubber bellows on RPS assembly disturbed or stuck up 9. RPS yoke screw over tightened 1.Check and adjust toe. 2.Check and adjust rack and pinion torque. Repair or replace 3. Adjust and correct tyre pressures 4. Repair or replace 5. Replace tie rod end or lower arm 6. Check the load 7. Replace tyres with correct specifications 8. Correct the disturbed or stuck up bellows 9. Tighten to specified torque Abnormal noise, front end. 1. Worn, sticky or loose tie rod ends, lower ball joints or tie rod end ball joints 2.Damaged strut assembly 3.Worn lower arm bushing 4.Loose wheel bolts 5.Loose suspension fasteners 6.Broken or damaged wheel bearings 7.Broken suspension spring 1.Replace worn out joints or components 2.Repair or replace 3.Replace worn bushes 4.Tighten wheel bolts to specified torque 5. Tighten all suspension fasteners to speci- fied torque 6.Replace wheel bearings 7.Replace spring Poor return ability 1. EPAS Malfunctioning 2. Caster and linkage initialization not happen 3. High friction in rack and pinion (too tight or improperly adjusted) 4. Improper wheel alignment 1. Check through the diagnostic tool and rectify. 2. Carry out wheel alignment and initializa- tion process. 3. Check the rack and pinion, replace if re- quired. 4. Carry out wheel alignment and initializa- tion process. Erratic Steering when braking 1. Brake rotor, drum, and or pads con- taminated with brake fluid, grease or other substances. 2. Uneven tyre pressure or wear 1. Remove wheel on opposite side of pull. Check for brake component contamina- tion. Clean or replace as necessary. 2. Check tyres adjust tyre pressure or re- place worn tyres as necessary. Wander or Poor steering stability / Lash in steering 1. Uneven or extreme tread wear. 2. Unequal tyre pressure on steered wheel. 3. Lash in steering due to any loose- ness or wear or cracked components from steering wheel to road wheels 4. Wheel alignment out of specifica- tion 1. Replace tyres with new one. 2. Correct tyre pressure to specification 3. Determine by inspection to identify the cause for lash and tighten or replace the affected component as necessary. 4. Correct wheel alignment to specification.
