provide ko na lang siya ng illustrations. kung may time lang ako, ako na tumira nun eh :D

kaso nagkawork ako :D

finally!!! ayos na power steering ng kotse.

dinala ko sa mekaniko ng kapitbahay namin at after niya ibaba at ikabit ng tatlong beses, eh naayos nman niya.

ang problema is yung bearing na may pin kung san nakasuksok yung pinion.

so ok ang pump, no leaks (as of now hehehe) and meron na power assist yung manibela.

sabi nung mekaniko, master na daw niya yung power steering sa kakaisip kung anu gagawin. binigyan ko kasi siya ng repair guide complete with illustration at instruction. kahit anong sunod niya ndi daw maayos nung una hanggang sa naayos niya rin :D

fourtheboys, san mo pinagawa yung kotse mo and saan yung carpower shop where you bought your repair kit?

i have the same problem with my 04 accord. grabe maubos yung ps fluid dun sa reservoir and may tulo talaga. nung pina-check ko sa mga apat na talyer sabi nila lahat rack and pinion daw sira at kailangan daw ng repair kit. naghanap ako ng repair kit sa banawe at wala pa daw sila nung ganung model. sa honda costs 14k. sakit sa bulsa and i can't afford that right now.

kaya kaya nung mekaniko mo ito? or kaya kaya ni speedyfix? thanks.

should be easy pero i would only suggest getting an oem repair kit for the car. yun lang yung tested namin na matibay. then you have to check also kung may kain na yung shafting or not. carefull din while the rack is removed or else you might brake the ribbon of the airbag...

thanks, speedyfix.

i don't know how to check the shafting so I'll just leave it to you guys when I bring it there. Mag-iipon muna ako for the repair kit. medyo masakit sa bulsa presyo nun. maghahanap din ako kung san meron ng OEM. thanks, pre.

carpower is in pasay rotonda (that's what they call that area in pasay).

dito ko din lang nalaman yang carpower na yan. search mo sa net yung telephone number para tawag ka muna sa kanila.

dito kasi ako sa laguna kaya taga dito din yung mekaniko. mas convenient kasi malapit although sometimes i have to provide them with some instructions and illustrations para tama yung trabaho.

kung sa metro manila ka, try mo yung speedy fix. search mo yung thread about the shop para sa background info at feedback about speedyfix.

[robbythor]

thanks, sir. i appreciate it.

good idea to save up for the oem kit

I had same problem with my hyundai grace van, just want to know how much will cost for a surplus or a brand new rack & pinion.
