Owner reviews for steering rack

Also "rebuilt" the steering rack with brand new inner and outer tie-rods, used a wire wheel to get all the grime off and threw a coat of black Epoxy paint plus the car came with a bag of Poly bushings so I utilized the Poly steering rack bushes.

As for the r32 rack, definitely quickens the steering. The swap really isn't very hard if you are already dropping the subframe for whatever reason.

Highly recommend the Z3 rack. Much go kart.

Instead I installed an aftermarket 'rebuilt' 4 bolt unit. Came with new bellows boots and inner tie rods, was still a bit pricey but saved something like $300 - 500 vs buying a rack & harness from my dealer.

Yes I installed it a good 6 months ago. The rack did reduce lock to lock. I do enjoy the difference, but I could live with the stock rack.

this is starting to happen in the 2023 civic sport, the steering gets stuck a certain angle and its very annoying trying to keep the car straight on the highway. it seems to happen like 5 mins into a drive

This just happened to me today. I just bought a new 2023 model Y over the weekend, and this happened within 5 days of the purchase. I am also apprehensive on continuing to drive the vehicle. This happened pulling into a parking garage and made turning crazy difficult. I nearly hit multiple cars trying to drive the thing. Thankfully this happened in a parking garage. Can't imagine what would've happened if I was on the highway. Needless to say, I will be reporting to NHTSA and Tesla.

I have a 2016 Civic ex-t. It has a bad sticky steering problem. Two different Honda dealerships have checked it. Both say there’s not a problem.

944 were notorious for leaky steering racks. We replaced many ZF steering racks in 944s back in the day. Usually when they went south, they would leave a sizeable puddle of ATF, underneath the car. Sometimes you need to pull the rack boots back, and the fluid would pour out.

The steering rack was replaced earlier this year when it started to lock randomly.
