FAQ_Q1 I replaced the rack and now the power steering pump is whining. It never did this before! What happened?
FAA_A1 The most likely cause of a power steering pump whine is air in the system. The steering system must be bled. This may take a few attempts depending on the design of the system.
FAQ_Q2 The steering wheel is not returning to center coming out of a turn. What could be causing this?
FAA_A2 The geometry of the front suspension is designed to return the steering wheel to center coming out of a turn. If the steering wheel is not returning to center on its own when coming out of a turn, check the front-end alignment settings and inspect for binding steering components.
FAQ_Q3 The replacement rack and pinion is installed and the steering wheel has too much play. Should I adjust the rack?
FAA_A3 No. The rack and pinion has been adjusted at the factory. No additional adjustment is necessary. Try isolating the rack to find out where the play exists. If you hold the inner tie rod and have someone turn the wheel, does the play disappear? If so, the problem is in the front-end; if not, remove the steering knuckle and lightly install vise grips on the sector shaft and check for play. If no play exists, check steering column or steering knuckle.
FAQ_Q4 Are there any steps that should be done prior to alignment?
FAA_A4 Yes, the boot clamps must be loosened to set the toe adjustment when performing a front-end alignment. Failure to loosen the clamps will twist the boots during turning maneuvers causing cracks to form on boot. Once the boot is torn, road debris and water intrusion can damage the rack end seal.
