Hi

I have been trying to eliminate these creaking noises that occur mainly when steering, especially in warm weather.

Over the weekend, with the help of my neighbor, I was finally able to hear the noise quite well and I discovered:

If I turn the steering wheel (which is about 10 degrees), it makes a similar clicking sound like when steering.

But the bar, of course, has 2 ends... Does this ever happen where the heads become so dry that they start to crackle noticeably when vibrated?

I can't get the steering rack's folding Baelge parts on and off without multiple hand injuries, so I won't be able to look at them anymore...

Does anyone have similar experiences?

I don't know what the f*ck it was.

hab beide Spurstangekoepfe neu.

Lenkung ist still und obwohl beim TUEV kein Spiel zu spueren war wuerde ich sagen auch "definierter" - also asl ob sie vorher doch Spiel gehabt hat.

[Translating...]Hallo dieselmartin !

Habe mit meinem 1Z speziell bei sehr warmen Wetter starke Knarz-Geräusche beim Lenken. Bei kalter Witterung ist nichts zu hören.
Habe bei KM-Stand 198.000 schonmal neue Achslenker bekommen.

Gruß D.

Moin D.

war da jetzt ne Frage in deinem Posting ??

Ich hab die Sache mit den SSKoepfen so gemerkt.
Als es warm war, und das Lenkungsknarzen da war, hab ich die Spurstangen verdreht (Also so, wie sie sich normal NICHT bewegen). Dabei haben die Koepfe genau das Geraeusch gemacht, wie beim Lenken. Verglichen habe ich das Geraeusche, indem ein Kollege etwas hinunher gelenkt hat, als ich unter dem Wagen lag.

[Translating...]Danke dieselmartin, aber Fragen schreibt man auch bei uns mit '?'.

War eben nur so´n 'Einwurf' von mir.
