Adjusting power-assisted steering box

Two mechanics are required for adjustment, which is to be performed with engine switched off.
  • [SIZE=-1]‒ [/SIZE]Raise vehicle on lifting platform.
  • [SIZE=-1]‒ [/SIZE]Wheels in straight ahead position.
  • [SIZE=-1]‒ [/SIZE]Turning steering wheel back and forth (roughly 30°about centre axis) produces a rattling noise in the event of excessive steering play.

  • [SIZE=-1]‒ [/SIZE]→ Have second mechanic carefully screw in adjusting screw (arrow) until rattling noise disappears inside vehicle.
  • [SIZE=-1]‒ [/SIZE]Perform test drive.
  • [SIZE=-1]‒ [/SIZE]After manoeuvring/cornering, make sure steering returns automatically and smoothly to straight ahead position. Correct setting if necessary.
 
I'm away with work so been looking through the manual while i'm bored, saw this and thought it might be good to try
