AFFECTED RANGE:

All RHD derivatives in 95MY to 98MY VIN ranges: MA 081991

PROBLEM:

NOISE WHEN TURNING STEERING WHEEL - PAS.

When manoeuvring, a hydraulic noise from the power assisted steering (PAS) system is heard.

CAUSE:

Pressure pulsations within the high pressure section of the steering system causing resonance in the hydraulic pipes.

ACTION:

Where a customer complaint of the above is confirmed, replace PAS pipes with the new pipes specified below and in PARTS INFORMATION .

• = On Tdi diesel applications, only the high pressure pipe (pump to steering box) requires replacement. = • = On V8 petrol applications it is necessary to replace both the high and low pressure pipe, (pump to steering box and steering box to reservoir).

Refer to Workshop Manual Steering Section, repair number 57.15.21 for replacement procedures and precautions.

The new pipe installation is identical to the original.
