Component Identification

Pressure limiting

A pressure limiting valve is installed in the quantity control valve to protect the steering system against overload.

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.
