gud pm, i just had my steering wheel upholstered at seatmate. after they put it back, on my way home, i noticed that the steering became too light. i had to ikot the manibela more especially on sharp turns. any ideas?

April 28th, 2005 03:41 PM #5katakot ka naman dre,
i just checked the car tuloy. i had to make 3 full revolutions before i reach maximum turn (left or right). i have no idea whether that is ok. di naman gumagalaw manibela (as a sign na maluwag).

April 28th, 2005 03:48 PM #7sir, u must be the same guy from the other site
walang play, if that's what you call yung ugoy left & right kapag on the road. or baka napa-praning lang ako. medyo kumapal kasi s/w dahil sa leather cover. tried pulling the manibela, di naman gumagalaw. salamat sa inyong concern.

April 28th, 2005 03:57 PM #8even if kumapal ung steering wheel the difference between turns shouldn't be that noticeable. i suggest you take it back to seatmate nalang and tell them what you observed. bantayan mo nalang when they check the steering wheel.

April 28th, 2005 04:10 PM #9Ano yung 3 full revolutions? From center to left, then from center to right? Or 3 from full left to full right?
Hula ko maluwag hindi kumakagat pag ikot mo. Steering wheel lang yung umiikot pero yung shaft hindi. Syempre hula lang kasi di ko naman kita.

April 28th, 2005 06:22 PM #12actually it depends on the type of car. but the usual jap econo-sedan is 3 turns from stop to stop. nasa manual po ito.. (but i don't have my manual handy right now..)
