Pressure limiting
A pressure limiting valve (49d) is installed in the quantity control valve (30t) to protect the steering system against overloading. It opens at a pressure
between 65 and 125 bar depending on the model of power steering pump.
This occurs, for example, at full steering lock, and is audible as a high-pitched whirring whistle.
