Steering Gear






Steering Gear

Thoroughly clean connecting points and their surrounding areas before loosening.

When installing steering gear, make sure centering sleeves are correctly seated between console and steering gear.

Place removed parts on a clean surface and cover to prevent contamination. Use foils and paper. Do not use fluffy cloths!

Only install clean components: Only unpack replacement parts immediately prior to installation.

Use exclusively lubricants and sealants marked with part numbers.

Carefully cover over opened components or seal, if repairs are not carried out immediately.

As of MY 2009 steering gear generation 3 is being installed. Information on the differences between generation 2 and generation 3, refer to => [ Differences between Generation 2 and Generation 3 Steering Gears ] Description and Operation.
