STEERING WHEEL RETURN TO CENTRE CHECK


Conduct a road test:
1.Make both gradual and sudden turns and check the steering wheel return.

2.At a vehicle speed of approximately 35 km/h, turn the steering wheel 90°, hold a few seconds, then release. If the steering wheel then returns 70° or more, the return can be judged satisfactory.
note There will be a momentary feeling or "heaviness" when the wheel is turned quickly, but this is not abnormal (Oil pump discharge amount is especially apt to be insufficient during idling).
