This 2013 Toyota Camry is in for a rattle noise coming from the steering when driving down the road. I also has a knocking noise when shaking the steering wheel from side to side. Any one would mistake this noise for a bad steering intermediate shaft. But its not.

Good tutorial G Auto, I figured out how to lower the entire steering (12mm nuts X 4) column as you suggested and it did save me time and much less disassembly, I added a bit of GP grease to the damper cavity with a new damper and my rattle and knocking has been corrected. Thank you!

I had the same noise on my wife’s Venza. Was driving me mental where it was coming from so I dove in deep determined to solve this. I saw this video but my damper was fine. The problem is the gapping between the metal worm to plastic pinion gear. Fortunately I have a friend who does specialty plating for the aerospace industry. Ultimately I was able to solve this using one of his processes. I’m going to offer a service so others don’t have to replace the entire column for $1,800 only to have the same problem down the road. I had no choice because I bought two salvage columns only to have the same issue.

Changed it out (worst part was the bolt holding the shaft half way down, make sure you take this out first before you drop the two bolts holding the column up at the front).

Very helpful hint video buddy. I drive a TOYOTA AVENSIS III ESTATE (T27) 2.0 D-4D (ADT270_) in England europe that's got an electric steering column and the steering does the same thing when I turn the steering wheel at low speeds. I don't know what to make of it. Is it bad tie rod ends? Is it bad CV joints? Is it bad suspension strut or bad strut mount and bearing or is it that it might have yhe same bushing as the Tacoma that you drive in this video. I am scared of spending a tonne of money to replace parts that don't need replacing and still not fix the problem. Do you think I might have the same problem as you? I would appreciate some advice please.

Hey this is a late comment but I hope you can give me an answer. I have a 2009 RAV 4. So far I’ve been experiencing a sort of sticky steering wheel. When I turn left or right, the wheel might get stuck in the position until I move it back straight. When it does get stuck and I free it, it sounds similar to the noise from the video. Kind of like a clunk when turning the wheel left or right. I just had my steering inspected and my mechanic says the intermediate shaft is fine. My next action was just to replace the steering column but do you think I’m also having a problem with just the damper? It sounds similar to your video albeit it doesn’t happen as frequently as in your video. Based off your experience, does it check all the boxes for the damper?

I does except for the sticky feeling. You may have multiple issues. You can start by checking the damper

@@gautorepair awesome thanks for the reply! Let’s say the damper is fine, what would be your next course of actions? I forgot to mention I got my suspension components checked and it all checked out okay. Could the motor itself be damaged? My dad said if the motor is damaged then it’ll either work or it won’t work. Not give me problems like this. This all becoming a headache lol I just want to fix it without having to swap out my steering column lol

@user-oh9tv8ul4c i would say to check individual components. If you have checked out the intermediate shaft and suspension continue to rule out other things like rack and pinion, etc. Something is binding up.

Okay but what if I feel vibration/rattling when I place my hand on the intermediate shaft while driving is it a bad rack or this plastic thing on the motor? ( the intermediate shaft is new)

I suppose this is not a cheap material from manufacturer to make savings, but is purposely made brittle. I read in MotorAge that a problem in "electric power steering" is the chance of motor seized. Then your steering is blocked. But when you grab the wheel and turn it with a lot of force this "thing" breaks and you can have steering back without the power assist. Sorry for the BS but i think that's why they made this brittle and not from metal. Any thoughts?
@gautorepair
@gautorepair 9 ай бұрын
could be possible. I think its made of this material to cushion the two components. if it were made of metal sure it would last longer but would probably cause noise issues. I have seen many similar dampers in the forklift industry. I used to service BHS battery station which has a huge 3 phase electrical motor driving the hydraulic pump. It has a similar damper but way heavier duty for sure. After many years they too fall apart and cause a thumping noise when you activate the hydraulics.

The material is a compromise between hard and soft. It need to cushion the forces but also but strong enough to stay together. I add grease to them when I install new and haven’t had one come back other than electric steering motor failure

Glad I decided to try to figure out what this is on my own - dealer 'found the issue' and quoted me $2k to fix the steering wheel column motor or something. Pfft they're all such scammers, it probably would have still been making this noise $2k later.

hyundai has identical issue: ==> Hyundai Motor America is revising the warranty coverage for the rubber coupling in the motor driven power steering (MDPS) assembly on 2007-2015 Elantra Sedans, 2009-2012 Elantra Touring models, 2011-2014 Sonata Sedans, and 2011-2015 Hybrid Sonata Sedans to 10 years from the date of original delivery or the date of first use, or 100,000 miles, whichever occurs first.
