This is a great simple repair if your steering is having this clicking issue. My clicking went away and my steering became a little more firm and sporty like it was originally.

Which kind of lube are you using?

Can this issue cause stiff steering?

As a rough guide I use, 80nm then half turn. (I've done 10-15 of these)

Really? 80nm sounds a lot

you mean you closed it with 80Nm thenn u released it by half and it was most of the time a great result? im asking cuz i also need to do this on my own car and im not really sure how exactly. i dont want to lift the car 10 times

I find after doing this the steering feel improved to be better than original. Also I have VAC monoball control arms. There’s actual steering feedback on my F30.

Glad to hear that! F chassis electro steering is often a let down, I personally really enjoy it, having driven almost every modern BMW in existence (not lived with though!) there’s certainly worse out there :)

Hi @ramen9996, I own a BMW F25 X3 and it has horrible steering when driving; it pulls left or right while normal driving on the highway, and it has noise when moving steering when standing in one place. If I replace the steering rack thrust bushing, will it improve steering?

I've got some creaking when turning the steering 180 while stationary, sometimes there's a clunk, but mostly creaking. BMW diagnosis was this thrust piece and also steering spindle bottom w joint.

My clunk ended up being my sway bar end links, I could only replicate over bumps. Your clunking, is that only doing full lock to lock?

@@anonymoustravelvidz Obviously these techs would know more than I, so I do hope they solve your issue. I have heard top hats are also known to creak, though not clunk as far as I've seen, so it may be time to just do some sort of front end refresh

@anonymoustravelvidz Have you figured it out? that creaking noise might be coming from your inner tie rod. I was also getting a creaking noise with the full lock turns when stationary & replaced both my tie rods & the noise is gone. & my thrust piece has been replaced as well a year prior so I know that wasn;'t contributing to the creaking

The clunky noise can be heard with engine off only or even when the engine is running?

It can be heard easier with the car off as the assisted steering is off and the mechanical bits can be easily heard. Even with the new bushing in I do still have a bit of clunk but it is significantly less

My car does this and on the ride side it makes a popping sound

@@EuroFeverGarage watched your video it’s not the sway bar it sounds like the pinion on the steering rack

Did it on mine and cant get it to center proper. Comes back ok when turning right but when turning left it centers to about 11:55 and overall feels like its pulling ng to the left 🤔

Hey there, thanks for watching the video. If the turning of the steering wheel feels tighter than before, as in more difficulty, then you may need to loosen how many turns you did on the bushing. If the issue persists, you may be having an alignment issue but that would be my initial thoughts!

They should have a similar system. Many of the bmw’s with electric steering racks have this bushing If you go to the link in the description, it should show you which cars are compatible

Does this worn part cause your steering wheel to wobble or only noise?

@EuroFeverGarage

Hey there, thanks for the comment. Are you talking about a wobble while driving? I did not have that issue, as mine was over bumps, my suspension was making a clunk noise. However if you turn the wheel back and forth while the car is off there was a very audible thunk from my worn thrust bushing

Mine had it already after 4y and 40k km. Very annoying and It's not only the noise the car also drives very bad on long straight lines on highway. After repair (dealership) noise was indeed gone, but the correct steering feel never game back. In my opinion it feels more loose due to the two rubber gaskets on the new part, it turns too lite. I can only say the steering is bad in all bmw f series ( 3,4, and 5 series) all using the same shitty electric power steering rack. Came from a lexus IS which also already had a electric steering but was much better in feel and straight line stability. The BMW only feels nice on twisty raod, highway is bad also with the new part. Also have a Mini now 75k km, also start to clunk. I can only conclude BMW' products are not the best quality you can buy. Some parts are really poor (costdown) not to speak of the timing chain problem most engines suffer of on the f series

Hey there thanks for the watch! I agree that the electric racks definitely aren’t the best, especially in this first move after the hydraulic steering of the older models. The current g is an improvement but as soon as you put them in sport they feel way over boosted and artificially heavy. Unfortunately I don’t think we’ll ever see a perfect replica
