• The performance of a repaired power steering rack depends on the quality of the repair and the severity of the problem. In some cases, the repair may not fully restore the original performance of the rack, especially when the internal mechanical parts are already severely worn.

  • HPS racks are more common in large vehicles and some high-performance models that focus on driving experience. These types of vehicles have high requirements for the durability, reliability and steering feel of the steering system, and the HPS system has obvious advantages in this regard.

  • The power steering rack is connected to the steering gear and steering wheel, and is responsible for converting the driver's steering instructions into actual steering actions of the wheels. Traditional mechanical steering requires a lot of force, while the power steering makes steering easier.

  • A faulty hydraulic power steering rack may make noises such as: 1. Whining Noise 2. Clunking or Knocking Noise 3. Squealing or Screeching Noise 4. Hissing Noise 5. Grinding Noise

  • From Toyota and Ford to BMW and Mercedes-Benz, these brands still choose hydraulic steering systems on some models because of their excellent reliability, excellent driving feedback and low manufacturing and maintenance costs.

  • The driver needs to exert more force when steering, which is especially dangerous for inexperienced drivers. In an emergency, the lack of steering power may cause the vehicle to fail to avoid obstacles in time or make correct steering operations, causing accidents.

  • The main function of the power steering pump is to provide hydraulic pressure and is the "heart" of the system. The power steering rack is the actuator, which converts hydraulic pressure into mechanical movement and is the "hands and feet" of the system. The pump provides power support for the rack, while the rack converts this power into actual steering effect.

  • In general, the service life of the hydraulic power steering rack is between 120,000 and 150,000 kilometers. However, this value is not absolute, because different use conditions will have different effects on its life.

  • New energy vehicles, especially pure electric vehicles, usually choose electric power steering systems when designing their power steering systems. The main reasons are as follows: Energy matching of electric power steering systems Efficient energy use Simple structure and high reliability

  • Hydraulic power steering rack (HPS Rack) is the most common type of steering system in traditional fuel vehicles. Its core is to provide steering assistance through hydraulic pressure. This rack usually works with a hydraulic pump, oil pipe, valve and hydraulic oil tank.
