2 Dust seal(1) Crack or damage
(2) WearIf outer wall slips, lip is worn out or
damage is found, replace it with new one.
3 Rack and pinion Poor mating of rack with pinion(1) Adjust backlash properly.

check if rack and pinion engage
uniformly and smoothly with each
other.
(Refer to“Service limit”.)
(2) Keeping rack pulled out all the way so
that all teeth emerge, check teeth for
damage.
Even if abnormality is found in either
