Description and Operation
OVERVIEW Published: 11-May-2011
The steering linkage comprises the tie rod which provides the connection between the steering gear and the front wheel
knuckle. Each end of the steering gear has a threaded hole which provides for the fitment of the inner tie rods. The external
ends of the inner tie rods are sealed with boots to prevent the ingress of dirt and moisture into the steering gear.

Description and Operation
TIE-ROD System Operation
The threads on the tie rods allow the position of the outer tie rod to be adjusted in order to set the correct toe angle for each
front wheel.
TIE-ROD Component Description
Each tie rod comprises two parts; an inner and outer tie rod. The inner and outer tie rods are screwed into each other and
locked with a locknut to prevent inadvertent movement.
The outer tie rod incorporates a non-serviceable tapered ball joint which locates in a tapered hole in the front wheel knuckle
and is secured with a self-locking nut. The ball joint has an internal hexagonal drive which enables the joint to be held
stationary when the self-locking nut is tightened.

Steering Column - Steering Column - Overview
Description and Operation
OVERVIEW Published: 11-May-2011
The steering column comprises the upper column assembly, the lower column assembly and the steering wheel. The 3
components are positively connected together to pass driver rotary input from the steering wheel to a linear output of the
steering rack.
The upper column assembly contains electrical adjustment for steering wheel reach and rake, the electric steering lock
mechanism and the steering angle sensor. Steering adjustment memory positions are stored in the driver's seat module.
The electric steering column is a standard fitment on all models. The upper column assembly contains electrical adjustment for
steering wheel reach and rake, the electric column lock mechanism and the steering angle sensor. Steering adjustment memory
positions are stored in the driver's seat module. The column also features a 'tilt away' function which moves the steering
column away from the driver allowing easier exit and entry to the vehicle.
Column adjustment is provided by a single motor for both reach and rake adjustment. Operation of the column adjustment is
controlled by a four way joystick type switch located in the column lower shroud. Column adjustment is an integral part of the
driver position memory system.
