"shit" happens to nice people. But you Ray took advantage of it, calling it learning prosess, quite expensive tho, for one little part, in specific vehicle and style of powersteering in it. In my mind, even I am not mechanic, thet profession is constant learning prosess, new models of cars and equipment to handle, now electric ones are coming also. But when you get that plutonium povered De Lorean fixed, You can do what ever comes to your shop.

If I was the customer in this case, because of Rays honesty, I would have told him I will pay for the part and he could just eat the labor. Honest mechanics are hard to come by.

Hey Mr. Ray! A word from the previously injured (lol) For YEARS my beautiful wife insisted I take my wedding ring off before beginning work. Did I listen? Of course not, unfortunately. I'm an aircraft mechanic for United Airlines here at Orlando International Airport. One night, a large component I was removing fell and crushed my wedding ring flat against the ground . Long story short? Thankfully our fastest thinking fellow mechanic and Red Cross Certified grabbed his cordless rotary disk cutter and quickly cut the ring. I went for an x-ray and the attending doctor said, typically the ring finger "departs the promises! She actually said that. (Lol) Please be safe and remove all jewelry before work! Good job here, BTW! 👍 👍

Good advice but not only carrying out mechanical work. I closed the door on my wife's car a few years ago and my wedding ring caught on the edge of the door and dragged my whole hand into the door pillar and I ended up with some crushed fingers. I didn't break any bones but lost a fingernail a few days later. No more wedding ring after that. Men's wedding rings are usually much larger than their wives hence the greater danger

Have the literal same issue, you saved me a lot of digging around the steering hardware with this video, thank you!

The best thing I like about your work and you Ray, is your attention to all detail. Yes, you explain everything very well. Yes, you do great work.

And Ray puts every nut, bolt and screw back in its original place. I had a clutch replaced and they failed to put a lot of accessory items back on; they weren't essential per se, but they did have functions to secure components and should have been put back in place. That's sloppy work - I scratched that shop off the list.

Ray - I'm sure that you were being careful, but I'm always wary when working on modern steering columns that have steering wheel airbags. A crossed or shorted connection could conceivably activate the airbag trigger, which would not be a pleasant experience if it went off at close quarters to face, chest or fasteners (aka "the region"). Personally, I would've disconnected the battery before futzing around with the electrical connectors in the steering assembly. Once the steering electrical connectors have been reconnected after the maintenance, getting out to reconnect the battery ensures that you're not going to be injured by the airbag going off if there's a problem with it, as you won't be anywhere near the steering wheel when power's restored.

Your car is harder to do than the one in the video. If you've never done one before, you should get the procedure out of the workshop manual for your vehicle. Also, be careful. Its a very heavy part, and you don't really see that in the video. After you remove al the bolts, the column drops down and inch or two and catches on a safety hook. When you go to drop it down, get underneath the column like you're bench pressing it. It would probably be a good idea to have someone there to help you lower it.

In some ways it makes sense to have that rubber piece. That way it is the weakest link therefore the first to fail. Much better an $8 part than having to replace the motor or other end of it. Just a pity it was not easier access. Eg motor downwards just up behind dash undo, drop it, replace rubber joiner and all done. But, it is what it is. Great video and thank you for sharing with us all. I did laugh at the start when you called it a Santa Fe which is the SUV instead of a Sonata. Keep happy and safe everyone :)

Also the parts can get a bit spendy because the only source for many is the dealership. Simple things like caliper bleeder screws you cannot get at the part store and the Dorman/HELP universal ones will not thread....yes they are still cheap at the dealer but Hyundai dealers are rare outside of cities so you lose more time and have to drive further.

As a contractor, I had to eat the cost of my mistakes as well. Sure, I could have lied and found a way to get the customer to pay, but that's just dishonest and I wanted long term customers. I'd rather eat a few dollars and keep my good reputation, and I'm glad you do the same, Ray. Your customers are extremely fortunate to have you!

A 'Lovejoy' coupling. I believe the proper name is 'Jaw Type Coupler' and the consumable part is called a spider. We use them in electric motor connections fairly often.

good morning Ray, this is your friend Alice in California that owns a towing company. As I stated in my last comment. We have exact same vehicle in our shop with the exact same problem. We also thought it was the intermediate shaft. However, the only difference is, I was able to hold onto the intermediate shaft and realize it was not shaft. I did learn later it was the very part you just replace. watching you replace it helped me. Thanks for the great video. Take care my friend.

Great job Ray and an honest mechanic. Good bro.

I appreciate that you are just human, like the rest of us.

Ray as for the parts the customer will still win because the steering shaft was 10 years old given the amount of disassembly I'd comp the labor and charge for the shaft. I maen with the new gear part and the new shaft this baby will be headed to the shredder before more work will be done. And do understand diagnosing these convoluted systems, given how well you treat people and you cannot give legitimate work away, the parts installed at a minimum should be billed, regardless. Now in the interest of honesty and full disclosure I would explain to my client the process, the benefits of the body of work done and offer a nominal discount for the labor specifically called out for the steering shaft replacement and pass the steering shaft part through at cost. After all any other shop in your area doing this job I just about can assure would be 20% to double your price. Don't beat yourself up or sell yourself short when you did put the customer's interests sincerely first. Transparency and honesty will always be best in the end.

You are amazing...I have never had a shop pay for a part that they misdiagnosed!
