Problem Possible Cause Correction
00 – 4 SERVICE INFORMATION
GENERAL INFORMATION
Since the problems in steering, suspension,
wheels and tires involve several systems, they
must all be considered when diagnosing a
complaint. To identify the symptom, always road
test the vehicle first.
Proceed with the following preliminary inspections
and correct any defects which are found.1. Inspect tires for proper pressure and uneven
wear.
2. Raise vehicle on a hoist and inspect front and
rear suspension and steering linkage for loose
or damaged parts.
3. Spin front wheels. Inspect for out-of-round
tires, out-of-balance tires, loose and/or rough
wheel bearings.

POWER STEERING SYSTEM
HISSING NOISE
There is some noise in all power steering systems. One of the most common is a hissing sound when the
steering wheel is fully turned and the car is not moving. This noise will be most evident when the wheel is
operated while the brakes are applied. There is no relationship between this noise and steering
performance. Do not replace the valve unless the "hissing" noise is extremely objectionable. A replacement
valve will also have a slight noise, and is not always a cure for the condition.

STEERING WHEEL FREE PLAY
ADJUSTMENT
INSPECTION
1. Check the amount of steering wheel play by turning
the wheel in both directions until the tires begin to
move with the front wheels properly in the straight
ahead position.
NOTE:
The wheel free play should be checked with the engine
running.
Steering Wheel Free Play mm (in)
0 – 30 (0 – 1.18)
2. Also check the steering wheel for play and looseness
in mount by moving it back and froth and sideways.
While driving, check for hard-steering, steering
shimmy and tendency to pull to one side.
ADJUSTMENT
1. Align the front wheels properly in the straight ahead
position.
2. Loosen the lock nut on the adjusting screw of the
steering gear.
3. Turn the adjust screw clockwise to decrease free play
or counter-clockwise to increase.
4. After check of specified free play, tighten the lock nut
to specified torque.
