For leaks at the hose or accessories, replacing the damaged hose or accessories is the best way to stop the leak. Aging or damage to the hose is one of the main causes of power steering pump leakage, so it is very important to check the condition of the hose regularly and replace it in time.

Abnormal The driver will feel that the steering wheel becomes unusually heavy, especially at low speeds or when parking. This situation not only makes driving more difficult, but also increases the danger of driving, especially in emergency situations.

Hydraulic power steering system is one of the earliest technologies to replace traditional rack and pinion steering systems. The system greatly reduces the force required by the driver to turn the steering wheel through the pressure provided by the hydraulic pump, thereby improving the comfort of control.

Here are some of the most common symptoms: 1. Steering wheel shakes or loosens 2. Steering is not sensitive 3. Abnormal noise 4. Steering wheel is difficult to return automatically 5. Steering accuracy decreases 6. Steering system leakage 7. Steering wheel vibration 8. Uneven tire wear

The cost of replacing a Mercedes-Benz steering rack varies depending on the model, part type, labor cost and other factors. For entry-level models such as the C-Class, the cost may be between $1,200 and $2,500, while for premium models such as the S-Class, the cost may be as high as $4,000 or even more.

Damage to the power steering rack may affect the flow of power steering fluid. Under normal circumstances, the fluid circulates in the system to play a lubricating and cooling role. If the power steering rack is damaged, the fluid may not flow properly, causing localized temperature increases.
-
The wear of the rack may cause the meshing between the rack and the pinion to no longer be smooth, or even gaps or abnormal contact. Especially when driving on bumpy roads, the vibration of the vehicle will aggravate this wear, causing the power steering rack to make a "clicking" sound.
-
The work of the steering rack and pinion involves a lot of friction and mechanical stress. If these metal parts are not adequately lubricated after long-term use or dry-grip due to lack of power steering fluid, they will gradually wear or produce gaps. These wears will destroy the sealing of the rack system and allow hydraulic oil to leak from these gaps.
-
Normally, the rack of the power steering rack should not move excessively. The purpose of the rack design is to fix the steering rack so that it can move smoothly during the steering operation and provide assistance to the driver through a hydraulic or electric power system.

Energy saving and high efficiency Compared with hydraulic power steering systems, electric rack and pinion systems do not rely on the engine to drive the hydraulic pump, but are powered by electric motors.
