[2022 Hot Search Top] Camry steering machine steering column abnormal sound solution is the most cost-effective solution

10 Maybe it’s a common problem with Toyota cars. I asked many friends who drive Toyota cars around me, as well as regular car drivers and forums, and found that many Camry that have been driving for more than six or seven years have more or less abnormal steering column noises, especially car owners who often walk bad roads. I don’t know whether this situation also exists in other Toyota models and other brands of cars. Of course, my 12 Camry, which has been driving for more than 10 years and 240,000 kilometers, is no exception. The situation occurred as early as three years ago. When the car passes through potholes and bumpy roads or speed bumps, or even passes through slightly uneven roads, there is always a squeaking sound under the steering wheel, which is really annoying! I consulted 4S technicians and several familiar car chain repair shops for this purpose. The solution given is without exception—that is, replace the steering column assembly of the steering gear! A ten-year-old car has to replace a steering wheel steering column assembly to solve an abnormal sound that is thousands of times, not including working hours! Even if Majiawei found a subsidiary factory, it would cost 2,000 yuan. I always feel that it’s not worth it! Therefore, the abnormal sound of the steering column of the steering machine became an extremely unpleasant criticism!
It is said that if you have more friends, the road will be easier. This infrequent forum and WeChat car friends often wandered to meet a friend who used to be a senior technician at GAC Toyota. Tell me that there is no need to change the assembly to solve the abnormal sound. It can be solved by replacing a small plastic gear. So Ma Jiawei walked around and found many sellers buying “Camry Steering Gear”. I chose a merchant with high sales volume to place an order and purchase it back!
A set of gears only cost more than 40 yuan, but in the end, we only needed to replace the larger gears, and the smaller ones were intact and no need to be replaced!
Detailed drawings of large and small gears!
It mainly relies on the green soft rubber part in the middle to play a buffering role!
Small teeth are made of pure rubber!
Disconnect the battery power first and then remove the steering wheel airbag!
What the back of the airbag looks like!
The removed hairspring cannot be fiddled with at will!
Put on the sleeve, and leave everything to Dali for a miracle!
In fact, a skilled and experienced master can easily take off the steering wheel and gently shake it and drag it slowly!
Remove the screws under the guard plate!
It’s really hard to tear it down if you are not proficient!
Remove all wire speeds!
Finally!
Pull out the steering column assembly of the steering machine!
It’s you!
The master has never replaced the steering column gear of the steering machine before, so he doesn’t know which part to remove!
Under my guidance, remove the steering column motor of the steering gear!
I finally saw the gear to be replaced! (I can’t find the picture when I opened it, so I will replace it with the one after replacing the gears!)
Do you see the rotten gears? It’s because there is no buffer from the green part, which causes the connection parts to have abnormal noises caused by the excessive amount of iron forging iron and the iron hitting hard plastic!
Contrast between old and new.
I won’t go into details when I install it!
Reverse operation means replacing it!
Ten years of steering wheel has been worn out!
Also do some maintenance!
I have to say that the performance of Odebuck oil is quite excellent!
Can you tell that this is the exhaust tube of a car that has traveled 240,000 kilometers?
Clean, without any carbon deposits!
Finally, we drove out for a road test, and all kinds of speed bumps and potholes and bumpy roads passed quietly! Are you still trying to solve the abnormal sound of the steering column? Do you have any idea?![]()
