Thank you so much for uploading this. It's really nice to be able to actually see the mechanism in real life and not just a diagram.

So glad I've just watched this video. It kinds of explains something that is happening to my reconditioned steering rack. But hard to explain via text. Here goes when it's in the center and if you want to turn left or right you have to push on it real hard. I'm beginning to wonder if the last part of this video is the reason why my steering is hard to turn with to much tention. Thanks for the explanation 👍🏿

I like the music, thanks for the video.

Great vid!

Thanks for breaking it down , Now I can run a better diagnosis

thank you for the effort to share us this video. Keep up

So on our 2012 Infiniti G37 RWD we got last august with 81k on it has always had a loose, over assisted feel to the steering. There was some leaking around what appears to be a drain plug on the rack that I cleaned up and tightened. Now the leak is gone, and the steering tighter. Perhaps I need to back off a tad on the nut as it may be both a drain plug and tensioner? Perhaps a gasket is missing is why fluid was leaking, as there was buildup around the nut and also the inner tie rod boot, plus of course the fluid on the ground directly below the nut.

Thanks for breaking it down!!!

Could you show EPS power steering rack 2015 year one BMW f45..more people would like to see

my input shaft if i grab it i can shake side to side and hear a little clunk it this normal. i am diagnosing wheel vibration and pull

Is there a seal at the end near the gear box on the rack gear? I have a leak at the end near the gear box where the teeth are on the rack gear. It’s not a major leak but the boot is wet. I took the boot off and I didn’t see any fluid dripping out, I’m trying to figure out if there is a seal or which seal might be wearing out at the end near the gear box.

There is a boot there on both sides, if that is missing or torn then yes it will leak fluid. You can replace the boots or have the rack rebuilt

It looks like when you turn the input to the right, the rack would push the wheel to the left (and vise versa) - I know this isn't what actually happens, but when I think about it, and when I look at your demo, it seems the input gear would/is pushing the wheel in the opposite direction as the input turn. Can you explain how the the input direction translates to the wheels turning in that same direction?

The steering knuckle on the hub where the tie-rod mounts is located behind the axle (axis of wheel rotation). So, when the steering wheel is turned to the right, the rack pushes on the left tie-rod, which causes the back of the left wheel to move outwards (and thereby the front of the left wheel to move inwards), steering the vehicle to the right.

Can a person make mistake an put the inlet hose in the part where the return hose must go?

Seed me for video as you can if automotive repair and maintenance please.

Good but Jarring music spoilt the video

How much rack and pinion

depends on the vehicle. $125-$2000.

Could have done without the annoying music at the beginning and would have been nice if you showed how/why the spool valve works.
