Here's how hydraulic power steering works on your car!
Check out my behind-the-scenes of the making of this video here:

Hydraulic power steering is used to assist the turning of the wheels on modern heavy vehicles. A power steering pump provides pressure to hydraulic lines that connect to the steering rack. The rotary valve uses driver input to determine which side of the steering rack to send hydraulic fluid to. The rack has a piston inside that moves in the direction that high pressure fluid is applied. Finally, the hydraulic fluid completes the circuit back to the reservoir to be cycled around again.

Saya Subcriber Anda dari Indonesia Tolong tanya kalau BATANG TORSI itu apakah menyebabkan Kemudi berat ? Kalau benar apakah ada cara untuk membetulkannya ? Terima kasih sebelumnya , saya tunggu kabar anda
7:55 "Because it's rounded off using this wrench, I'm gonna have to use another wrench to get it off." Love the dry humor!

Ha ha ha ha, I finally understand how this mechanism works. I always wondered how the power assist knew when to stop, ie how to prevent pressure assist from steering beyond where the driver wants to go. It's all about that little torsion bar. As soon as the steering wheel is released, the torsion bar springs the holes back to a neutral position so no more pressure goes to the side you're turning towards. Genius.

Yes torsion bar backs to neutral position but how it is turned when moving? is there a clutch like system ? if released how the gripping is over? i understand the mechanism but i wonder the details.

@@juvenildr it puts pressure on the side of the steering that you want to turn it, it wont turn the rack by itself, it just puts pressure there to help you turn the steering easier.
The torsion thing! THATS what I was missing in my understanding of how these things worked! Thank you! As always, a great explainer video!

hi there, You made a very detailed video and many thanks for explaining that. I have a question regarding the failure you mentioned at 6:12. That failure could be due to a torsion bar or hydraulic pump or steering rack seal leakage, I am facing this hard steering problem in my car these days and I am wondering if you can help me answer this in order to fix my car. Many thanks Regards
Hello from India. Very informative video, especially the torsion bar thing. I have a strange issue with my humble ford fiesta with hydraulic PS. I find steering assistance is a bit more than I would have liked. Car turns tack sharp but I'll love to put some more effort in turning. I got a new rack, suspension kounts, struts to fix some of the other issues but this one is giving me a tough time. Any suggestions?
Excellence 🙏

Wife made VDO perfect!!
So how do I lighten my rack ? Change the control valve for a bigger one to let more fluid around?
Just a quick question. When you steer to the complete left or right (when u reach end) the high pressure fluid would be still directed towards that direction. What is the mechanism that will prevent the pressure build up and return the fluid to the return line?
Lovely video, I just want to ask, can the pinion gear make the steering to be hard of stiff, I use Mitsubishi Montero 2004 limited and the steering is stiff, we have changed the power steering pump still stiff, the mechanic said it is the steering rack pinion that is faulty, can the steering rack or pinion make the steering to stiff. And there are no leak on the rack at all.
Thanx
Thanks for your educational video. Could you help me by identifying a noise from the pump. It´s been replaced by a used 71000 km pump. The same noise of high strain state to pump persists. It appears when not turning. When turning the wheel, the noise changes loader and quieter and it gets a little stuck at high sound parts. It happens more when the system in cold and makes no noise at all when warm. The noise returns after shutting down for a few minuts. No leaks. Fluids are new. The left front wheel was replaced because of rim damage, and same wheel´s control control rod´s end part was replaced. Perhaps the new pump was damaged due to lack of bleeding as it was changed by the mechanic? Or is the center rod bad? Chevrolet Matiz 2005 1.0 L has no electric motors in the steering column.
If you blow piston with low pressure air there will be allot of blow-by the rack piston hard seal ring . Fluid pressure expands the seals I suppose to a tighter clearance.
you're the best

Wheel effort makes pressure increases actuating idle air valve open to increase engine rpm to compensate 85 Supra.
On the diagram you showed what did the blue line do?
So the steering rack is lubricated by grease, and is not simply bathed in the power steering fluid?
More informative in the first 2 min. than the 8 videos I watched before this combined. Answered everything I wanted to know. Thanks Mr. Speedkar- you, your wife, and your brother's stolen underwear are legends
Can you do a video on how the clock spring on the steering wheel works.

I already have one
what is the name of "oil seal" that prevent oil from the steering pump to go away in unintended direction in the rotary valve? is it called a oil seal? and is it effective to replace it or replace the whole rotary?
When installing pinion gear, do I have to adjust the fluid holes or not? or it can be installed directly without considering the fluid path
