steering shaft cross - Toyota RAV4, 2.0 l., 2006
About two months ago, at deep turns, a knock on the steering wheel began to be heard, which, at the same time, was given off by light blows to the steering wheel itself.
I went to the service twice - they heard, but could not understand.
today the knock got out - the steering shaft crosspiece got stuck. make a car, in 3 hours I'll go to pick up, take pictures of this ill-fated piece of iron.
added after repair: the steering wheel is like new - elastic and a little tight. class!
Price tag: 3 800 ₽ Mileage: 68 000 km
it looks like all ravchiks have a congenital disease ... but isn't this a guaranteed case?
I would be tired of proving. I decided for myself that if the question price is not more than 5000, then I will not bother
Aha! The same garbage, the steering wheel knocks, on our ravchik. Under warranty, the servicemen were going to change the steering shaft itself))))
Most likely, too, a cross, call them tomorrow.)
(80t.km mileage)
> 80 thousand suspension did already?
No, I think.
When they were looking for this backlash, the suspension, the rack, the tie rods, everything was checked ok. But this, according to the servicemen, will make the steering wheel visible.
Damn, and my wife's steering wheel was knocking. These very educated people at TOYOTA changed the steering shaft. It seems to have stopped. Recently traveled, it seems to start again. What's the suspension, we changed the steering rack for 5 thousand.
Not well, of course, I understand that it's hard to skate on Izhu, but my Gelding has skated 900 pieces.
This "crap" is called the steering shaft cross, it is strange how you have to drive to kill her in a new car, took part in the rally ?! On my old "Kruzak 100" I had 390,000 t.km. And on my first (w140 Mercedes) on the run already 900,000 t.km (ORIGINAL!) In short, the suspension is already the driving style and the driver's experience, and the car lacquer is the love and grooming of the car. In short, I did not allow it.
Yes, so that's it, then I saw the guy to whom he sold the run he wound up under 150,000, I think he gives
Why don't they live, I've been rolling w140 since 1999, from 0 in 2007, there was a run of 901 754 (looked at the service book), served in the AZR office. dealer! Sold without winding, taken with hands S600 Long

, etc.
I do not seem to live so much)
it is difficult to say now, the car actually did not regret it at first. on the other hand, cars are becoming cheaper - consumables are becoming cheaper, which means they wear out faster ... trend, his mother is so
And how many of these crosses are there? I think there are two of them, if there are two, then how to determine which one died, and how long to change it, I myself can handle it, my hands seem to be in place.
