How to maintain the steering system of the car

Why should the car steering system be maintained?

Power steering fluid is often in a continuous extreme pressure and high temperature working environment, so after a period of time, there will be pollution deterioration, and lose lubrication performance, resulting in deposits such as paint film, making the car difficult to steer, steering wheel trembling and other failures. If the sediment inside the power steering system cannot be removed regularly, it is easy to cause damage to the hydraulic oil pump in the system, resulting in high maintenance costs and delaying valuable time.

Remove harmful sludge and paint film in the system, remove the steering difficulties at low temperatures, stop and prevent the leakage of power steering fluid, remove steering noise, and completely replace the old brake steering fluid. Or in case of difficult steering system leakage, after replacing the power steering machine accessories, it must also be cleaned and maintained once.

How to maintain the power steering system of the car?

Every 40,000km-45,000km cleaning of the car needs to be maintained once, or in the case of steering difficulties, the system leaks, and after replacing the power steering machine accessories, it must also be cleaned and maintained once. Remove harmful sludge and paint film from the system, remove steering difficulties at low temperatures, stop and prevent leakage of power steering fluid, remove steering noise, and completely replace the old brake steering fluid.

What causes understeering?

Understeering, that is, when the vehicle turns, it does not turn enough to the angle of the steering wheel, that is, if the angle of the steering wheel is expected to make the vehicle turn 90 ° it will slide out. There are many reasons for this, mainly such as too fast speed, slippery or uneven road surfaces, and rupture of the front wheels.

Among them, front-wheel drive vehicles are more likely to be understeered due to pressing the throttle hard, because when the throttle is slammed, the center of gravity of the vehicle will move backwards, resulting in the front part of the vehicle leaning upwards, and the front wheel adhesion is weakened, resulting in understeering.
