CHECKING STEERING WHEEL PLAY
• Turn steering wheel so that front wheels come to the straight-ahead position. Start engine and lightly turn
steering wheel to the left and right until front wheels start to move. Measure steering wheel movement on the
outer circumference.
• When the measurement value is outside the standard val ue, check backlash for each joint of steering col-
umn assembly and installation condition of steering gear assembly.
CHECKING NEUTRAL POSITION STEERING WHEEL
• Make sure that steering gear assembly, steering colu mn assembly and steering wheel are installed in the
correct position.
• Perform neutral position inspection after wheel alignment. Refer to PS-2, " Precaution for Supplemental
Restraint System (SRS) "AIR BA
G" and "SEAT BELT PRE-TENSIONER" " .
• Set vehicle to the straight-ahead position and c onfirm steering wheel is in the neutral position.
• Loosen outer socket lock nut and turn inner socket to left and right equally to make fine adjustments if steer-
ing wheel is not in the neutral position.
CHECKING STEERING WHEEL TURNING FORCE
1. Park vehicle on a level and dry surface, set parking brake.
2. Start engine.
3. Check steering wheel turning force when steering wheel has been turned 360 ° from neutral position using suitable tool as
shown.
4. If steering wheel turning force is out of the specification, refer to STC-6, " How to Perform Trouble Diagnosis " .
CHECKING FRONT WHEEL TURNING ANGLE Steering wheel axial end play : 0 mm (0 in)

• Check front wheel turning angle after toe-in inspection. Place front
wheels on turning radius gauges and rear wheels on stands.
Check the maximum inner and outer wheel turning angles for LH
and RH road wheels.
• With the engine at idle, turn steering wheel from full left stop to full right stop and measure the turning angles.
• Measure rack stroke if angles are outside the specified value.
• Disassemble steering gear assembly to check the cause that rack stroke is outside of the standard.
• Steering angles are not adjustabl e. Check steering gear assembly,
steering column assembly and front suspension components for
wear or damage if any of the turning angles are different from the
specified value. Replace any of them, if any non-standard condi-
tion exists.

1. Apply recommended grease to teeth part and bush part of rack assembly, if necessary.
2. Apply recommended grease to back of rack assembly, if necessary.
3. Install inner socket to rack assembly. Torque to specified value while holding the flat portion of the rack next to the inner socket using a suitable tool.
4. Apply recommended grease to inner socket.
5. Decide on the neutral position for the rack assembly.
6. Apply recommended grease to around retainer (3), then install retainer (3), spring (4) and adjusting screw (1) to gear housing
assembly (5).
7. Apply recommended thread locking sealant to the thread (2 turns thread), and then screw in the adjusting screw (1) until it
reaches height “H” from gear housing assembly (5) measured
before disassembling.
8. Tighten lock nut to (2) the specified torque securing it to prevent adjusting screw (1) from freewheeling condition.
9. Move rack assembly 10 strokes throughout the full stroke so that the parts can fit with each other.
10. Using Tools A and B, measure rotating torque of pinion assem- bly. If the measurement is outside of the specified range, read-
just pinion rotating torque. If the measurement is outside of the
specified range for readjust, replace steering gear assembly.
11. Set dial gauge to the back of rack assembly on the pinion assembly side around the center of stroke. Measure displace-
ment of rack under torsional torque of ± 7.8 N·m (0.80 kg-m, 69
in-lb), and then check if it is within the standard value. If the
measurement is outside the standard value, adjust it again. After
the readjustment, if measurement is still outside the standard
value, replace steering gear assembly.

SYMPTOM DIAGNOSIS
SQUEAK AND RATTLE TROUBLE DIAGNOSES
Work Flow INFOID:0000000004307390
CUSTOMER INTERVIEW Interview the customer if possible, to determine the c onditions that exist when the noise occurs. Use the Diag-
nostic Worksheet during the interv iew to document the facts and conditions when the noise occurs and any
customer's comments; refer to IP-9, " Diagnostic Worksheet " . This information is necessary to duplicate the
conditions that exist when the noise occurs.
• The customer may not be able to provide a detailed descr iption or the location of the noise. Attempt to obtain
all the facts and conditions that exist when the noise occurs (or does not occur).
• If there is more than one noise in the vehicle, be sure to diagnose and repair the noise that the customer is
concerned about. This can be accomplished by test driving the vehicle with the customer.
• After identifying the type of noise, isolate the noise in terms of its characteristics. The noise characteristics
are provided so the customer, service adviser and technician are all speaking the same language when
defining the noise.
• Squeak —(Like tennis shoes on a clean floor) Squeak characteristics include the light contact/fast movement/brought on by road conditions/hard surfaces
= higher pitch noise/softer surfaces = lower pitch noises/edge to surface = chirping
• Creak—(Like walking on an old wooden floor) Creak characteristics include firm contact/slow mo vement/twisting with a rotational movement/pitch depen-
dent on materials/often brought on by activity.
• Rattle—(Like shaking a baby rattle) Rattle characteristics include the fast repeated contac t/vibration or similar movement/loose parts/missing
clip or fastener/incorrect clearance.
• Knock —(Like a knock on a door) Knock characteristics include hollow sounding/someti mes repeating/often brought on by driver action.
• Tick—(Like a clock second hand) Tick characteristics include gentle contacting of li ght materials/loose components/can be caused by driver
action or road conditions.
• Thump—(Heavy, muffled knock noise)
Thump characteristics include softer k nock/dead sound often brought on by activity.
• Buzz—(Like a bumble bee) Buzz characteristics include high frequency rattle/firm contact.
• Often the degree of acceptable noise level will vary depending upon the person. A noise that you may judge
as acceptable may be very irritating to the customer.
• Weather conditions, especially humidity and temperature, may have a great effect on noise level.
