Thanks Max,
Your video was thorough and easy to follow. The only drama we had was trying to compress the motor spring enough to get the screws started. But once completed, it was good as new despite being a 2010 i30 with 300k. Thanks mate. Alan T.
You are right! I had to invoke the "MiracleMAX Muscles" to get the spring compressed. 🤣 Just like you, I got there in the end .
Thanks for your comment.
Thank you - really helpful and I've managed to replace the bush in my 2009 Hyundai i30 thanks to your video! Worth saying that you don't have to remove the steering wheel - move the wheel round (at the start when it is still powered up) and you can remove the two screws that hold the shroud in place. The steering column is quite fiddly (the little tang at the bottom could do with having a bit more of a lip) and a second person makes it a bit easier. Clunk has disappeared.
Thanks again
👍👍👍
Glad the video was of use.
Good to know about the steering wheel. That would shorten the repair time.
Thanks for your comment. 😉👍
My daughter's garage told her a new steering rack was the likely problem. Fortunately I saw this and she was able to get a local facility to do the repair for her. All good now and MoT passed, so a big saving.
Well done! I'm glad the video was helpful.
Thanks for sharing you comment 👍
How much did they charge?
Yet another informative video and as usual well presented. You may be aware that Hyundai have a number of helpful and detailed TSBS on issue.
You are right Colin. This is a common fault. Hyundai have been aware of it for quite some time.
Thanks for your input. 😊👍
To get to those two screws you do not need to remove the steering wheel. Just turn left to get to the left screw and right to get to the other one.
Yes, others have commented similarly.
Thanks for your comment
Max, thank you for an excellent video. This was enormously helpful. I followed your video and replaced the part Unfortunately now the steering is now very heavy. The EPS light is on. Does this mean my EPS modules and/or steering motor also needs replacing? Is there anything else you recommend i check?
Have you driven it for an extended period of time? What fault code does it have? Did you remove the steering wheel at all?
@@MiracleMAX I have not driven it more than a 1-2 minutes up and down the driveway due to the heavy steering - do you recommend that? I dont have an OBD scanner, so cant report on any codes.
and yes I did remove the steering wheel (followed your steps in the video.
@@justinstewart3760 Did you centre the clock spring before you reinstalled it? Did you also check for blown fuses?
@@MiracleMAXwhen I removed the steering wheel, the clock spring was located at the top but very easily swung down to the bottom. I manually moved it back to the top when I refitted the wheel - there did not seem to be any indication of the correct placement for the clock spring. no blown fuses.
Gr8 video Max, i did my first one yesterday, i actually removed the column from the vehicle, glad i did as on this one the motor was up the LH rear and not accesible to do in car. I have a TCS lt on upon road test but will scan tool it today for any codes that maybe resettable. Thanks mate 👍🍻
Good job. Yes, some have found it easier to remove the entire steering column. Did you do any resets - steering angle?
Let us know how you go! 😉
@@MiracleMAX I scanned it today and it was the usual low voltage for the airbags and Steering angle relearn needed doing. I've read on TaT website that these can have wiring issues if you don't disconnect all that associated wiring. Cheers
@@MrConspark Have you carried out the steering angle relearn?
Great video, easy to follow , you saved me a small fortune . Thank you
You're welcome!
Hi MM, lots of working upside down for such a small part. I feel sorry for your back. Thx for the vid. Happy Easter.
Hey Nigel,
I ain't getting any younger that's for sure!
Hi Max, thank you for the video. Can you tell me if the same part is available for i30 from 2016 and newer?
You would need to ask your local spare parts supplier, or check online to see if the parts suit your vehicle
Not sure what model i30 you’re fixing! But on 2008 I’m fixing, you just turn the steering wheel left and right to get to the screws behind the steering wheel
Good to hear! There was no access with this one
Hi, did you lock the steering wheel after removing the screws on the wheel?
@@seongbaehwang9973 It is best to lock the steering wheel in the straight ahead position otherwise if is reassembled incorrectly, you risk damage to the clock spring connector
I do most general car maintenance like changing oil, brake/fluid, radiator... but never go down this deep . i'm not sure that i'm confident enough to do it. But thanks for the video, that was so well explained.
Glad you got something from it. Thanks for your comment 😉👍
At 9:26 the two bolts that you undo. Can you remember which side has the longer bolt? I didn’t notice mine were different sizes until I went to reinstall them. Cheers, great vid
Sorry I don't remember. Can you roughly measure the depth of the holes? That should give you an idea
This might be too late to be of assistance - the one closest to the right side is the longer of the two.
@@hamishalker-jones9157 Thank you for your help 👍
Hey Max, i recently did this to my partners i30. After replacing and puttinf everything back together there is a whirring/groaning noise when turning mainly left. Does this raise concerns? Or is the new part wearing in?
There shouldn't be any noises. Sounds like you might have something misaligned. Can you hear the noise at the steering motor?
My Airbag light is still on after doing this whole repair, how do we get the air bag light to stay off?
You could try and clear the fault code using a scan tool or disconnect the battery for about 10 minutes
Do I need to lock the steering wheel? I took down the steering column without locking the steering wheel and found out that the column was rotating freely. Will it cause any issue if the column is rotated when installing a new part?
It is best to lock the steering wheel in the straight ahead position. If you put it back on incorrectly, you risk damage to the clock spring connector.
Hello, if the 2010 i30 steering angle sensor is broken, will the steering become harder?
I would imagine so as the angle sensor is crucial for the operation of the electronic assisted steering. What makes you think it is broken? What tests have you carried out? Do you have any fault codes to guide you?
The error code is c 1261, so I think the error is there and I live in Turkey, they want 500 dollars for the repair here🤣
Thank you for your reply by the way.
@@ASEL3636 C1261-Steering angle sensor (SAS) not calibrated.
It would be worth just recalibrating the sensor to start with. Have you had any steering repairs done recently? Wheel alignment? Hit any curbs? Did the steering assist stop working after any particular event?
After writing to you, I reset it with OBD2 and the problem was solved. Yes, I changed the ball joints, I think that was the reason, thank you for your information.
good job mate!
Thank you! Cheers!
iDID IT BUT ESP IS STILL OFF AFTER MANY TIMES TURNING STEERING AND DRIVING ANY IDEAS ?
Did you reset the steering angle sensor? Did you use a scan tool?
@@MiracleMAX I did not reset anything obd2 did noy show any faults . I JUST STARTED TO DRIVE TURNED STEERING WHEEL MAX LEFT AND RIGHT FEW TIMES TURNED OFF AND ON ENGINE FEW TIMES. IS POSSIBLE I CONNECTED STH WRONG ALL SEEMS FINE EXCEPT ESP OOF STILL ON THE OTHER ESP ONLY GOES OFF DID NOT TOUCH ESP BUTTON
@@tommi59tk What repair did you actually do? The steering angle will need to be reset if you have had any work done on steering components. Was the steering wheel placed back in exactly the same position if it was removed?
@@MiracleMAXi Replaced the coupler and set in very straight position because it was much off .So I need ti use computer software to fix it? is any free program to do that?.THANK YOU FOR REPLY
@@tommi59tk Yes, you will need to carry out a steering angle relearn with a scan tool. Before you do that, if the steering was out, it might be best to do a wheel alignment first.
good job ❤
Thanks 😆
when i turn my steering wheel sometimes it creaks sometime anybody know if its the plastics or how to fix it
Has all the steering system been checked? Can you isolate where the noise is coming from - inside the cabin or under the vehicle?
@@MiracleMAX everything has been checked and it comes from inside the cabin
@@lucasflafandersen219 You could remove the steering column shroud to see if that removes the noise
Have the same issue with my 2010 i30 Hyundai.
My surprise was after all that work the star inaide to be intact...soooo right now i have no clue ita the motor itself...joint was also change :(
Have all the steering joints been checked, including the shaft universal joint, as shown in the video?
Have you changed it anyway ?
@@MiracleMAX yes :(
@@bal12452 No it didn t have any wears at all...strange
@@robertbuzatu4636 Mine was "looking" great but after removing it, I noticed it was really, really soft.
Changed it anyway considering the disassembly time/pain, and knocking noise disappeared
👌✌️👍
Thank you
Little hint, leave the nut partially on so you don't smack yourself in the forehead with the steering wheel when it comes off.
Is that from experience? 😊 Great idea! Thanks for sharing
@@MiracleMAX Lol, how did you know? 🙂
@@Stambo59 Life experience comes from 'been there, done that' occasions.
@@MiracleMAX For sure, and my life has a lot of experience. 😀
How very complicated,just turn the steering both ways and remove both screws with the engine running.No need for removing the steering wheel.Just unplug the battery leads while waiting for 15 minutes to be safe to unplug the airbag connector on the steering column.How he managed to confuse the steering sensors, don,t now why. Did the same operation on a kia soul 2009,no problems at all.Remember that the newer models have a modified c.q. improved power steering house and need another approach.I am dutch so excuse me for my english.
Thanks for your comments. Not sure what you mean by confusing the sensors. Glad you were able to do it easier.
@@vanderkemph Yes, others have noted on this particular vehicle, driving it may reset the sensor. You can see by some of the comments that others have not been able to. Other vehicles do not give you that option...you have to do a reset. I just thought I would show you that option. I did mention in the video that sometimes you can carry out specific procedures, including driving it to reset it. In this case it did not work.
Thanks for your input - much appreciated.
Dankeschön! Sehr gut.
But I will definitely ask my garage to do the job. I don't have sufficient self condidence to perform such work.
You do need to be a bit of a contortionist as well 🤣
Nice one mate, always fun these little coupler bushes. Another knocking hyundai has been quitened 😊
Keep up the good work 👌💪
Thanks Gerard,
It was the first one I have done, so figured I would try it insitu & to be honest, it wasn't too bad. I see a lot of guys pulling out the steering column, but due to my amazing contortionist skills, I was able to do it in the vehicle. 😁
@@MiracleMAX
Yes I have seen a few people do it that way as well, I have tried both ways. In the vehicle once, never again 🤣🤣
Different flow for different folks, doesn't matter either way as long as it gets all put back together 💪😊😉
The esp light always tend to go out with a drive, it's a strange one because they don't always come on and that goes for the same make and models vehicles doing the same procedure both times with the steering column marked to the joint and no difference in steering location 🤔😊
@@GerardBurkeBurkesGarage Yeah, the light does generally go off, but I do it in the workshop with the scan tool handy 😊😊
@@MiracleMAX 💯💯
The ESP light disappears if you drive it for 5/10 minutes, turn it off, turn it back on.
Yes, correct, some vehicles will auto correct when driven, others require a reset.
@@MiracleMAX be honest, you just wanted to show us your scan tool😎😂
@@MattKilroy-Findley What's the point of having really cool toys unless you play with them??? 😁😉😎
Good afternoon sir ! Thank you soo much for this video 🤝 I’ve done it first time thanks to your video. It took me few hours (something around 3 h ) but without rush , without pressure ,just calm job with cold non alcohol beers 😁. Everything works 💯 percent all I don’t have to do anything with diag tool because I cannot see any problems at all! Thank you again 🤝
That's great news & I'm glad I was able to help. Yes, a clear head and a calm attitude is a must when taking on a new repair. Having a step by step process to follow always makes the job easier as well.
Congrats on your repair! 👍😉
Hi Max, that was quicker to do than an i40, it took me 3 hours to complete, that was 5 years ago and the part has held up all this time. The dealership quoted me to replace the motor, without looking at the car. I purchased the part online for about $20.00AU and it was the second version (I think).
What was the part number for this part, just curious to see what version they are up to?
Thanks
Hey Rich,
As mentioned, this is a common fault. It's amazing that the dealership didn't realise that.
The part number I fitted was 563152K000FFF
Hi sir what do you call that small thing that you replace thanks in advance i need to replace mine as well and thanks for your good video
As mentioned in the video description, it's called a rubber steering coupling
Ya don't have to take steering wheel off turn steering wheel 90 degrees and ya can see the shroud screws
Someone else had made that comment. Either mine didn't have that or I just missed it.
Thanks for your comment.
Followed the video, and well dashboard lights galore, now need to pay someone with a reader and reset and reprogram everything.
That's unusual! Did you remove the steering column or do it in the vehicle? Did you remove any connectors with the ignition turned on? Have you tried disconnecting the battery if you don't have a scan tool? That might help reset some values. What lights on the dash are on? Does the power steering work and have you driven it for an extended road test?
Yeah driven over 50 miles and lights on, the eps and esp off lights are on. Tried everything you've done in video other that the obd reader, followed everything you did, ignition was off the whole time. But at least your video help me sort the clunking from the busted cog
@@wipeout1978 You may need to do a steering angle reset. An OBD2 reader is not capable of that. A scan tool will need to be used. Hope you get it sorted. 👍
Very informative
Thanks mate 👍🏽
No problem 👍
Thanks a lot for the fantastic video. I have the same problem when I turn the steering wheel while the car is stationary. Identical sound. But I also hear a knock when I go over bumps in that part down the steering wheel mechanism. I can hope, but I don't believe that the problem is only up to this part. Which part causes knocks over bumps?
The other knock could be several things. Have you tested the steering column uni joint as shown on the video?
th-cam.com/video/JJvM40st19c/w-d-xo.html
Other things to check is the actual steering (rack & tie rod ends), wheel bearings, suspension, such as bushes or shock absorbers
@@MiracleMAX That small plastic part was the only thing that making noise. Whan we change it everything is good now. My Hyundai is i30 2012-2017 model year. Thank you a lot ones again.
@@simanikola Glad to hear you have fixed your problem! 😉
I have a really weird situation i changed the rubber coupler and put everything back to place but now the steering wheel is locked even though i can start the car so the car runs the key is not stuck but the steering wheel is locked any idea what might be the problem?? The car is Hyundai ELANTRA 2010
Did you remove the ignition barrel at all? Is something jammed against the steering shaft? Are all wiring connectors connected correctly? Have all resets been done with a scan tool? Are there any fault codes? Has the electric motor been installed correctly as well as the coupler?
@@MiracleMAX yes everything was back exactly the way it was but i don’t have a scanner tool I didn’t remove the ignition barrel i removed the whole steering wheel column and removed the steer assist motor because it was hard to work on it while the steering wheel column was in its place and put everything back together with caution and there’s nothing on the dashboard probably because i disconnected the battery while i was working on it but whenever i start the car no lights pops up on the dashboard even when i leave it running for a couple of minutes
@@maysaraal-kurdi1080 If you have no dash lights, you most likely have left a connector disconnected.
What is that parts name and where to buy it?
Just do a Google search for 'hyundai electric steering rubber coupling'.
That will give you all the options for genuine parts
Brilliant! It helped me a lot🎉
Glad to hear that!
Quite involved, this one.
Takes a while, but nothing too hard
Is the car dangerous to drive in this condition? Is there a risk of the steering failing?
As far as I know, I haven't heard of an accident directly relating to this fault, but if you have this issue, you should certainly get it repaired as soon as you can.
@@MiracleMAX understood. Thanks for the reply. And thanks for the vid!
Hi I also have this problem but the garages I have been to tell me I need a new steering column.
@@Linda-xc6rl That may be the case. The coupling was not the only issue with these vehicles
My i30 2008 steer right by itself when leaving the wheel in a regular position. Several mechanics checked it and said that everything looks ok with the car and suggested that it could be faulty electronics. It's not the tires because I recently switched to winter tires and it's the same.Any ideas ?
Has a wheel alignment been carried out? Has the steering angle sensor been reset? Do you live in a dusty area? Some of these use an optical torque sensor that could be affected by dust obscuring the sensor. Are the steering column uni joints OK? Has the coupling shown in the video been checked/replaced? Has the vehicle been in an accident? Is the steering rack and all ball joints in good condition?
@@MiracleMAX thanks for your response. No accidents. Wheel alignment has been done yes. Steering column uni joints was checked as well. Steering angle sensor has not been reset, steering rack and the coupling in the video ... I don't think so. Thanks for the hints.
@@Just_a_Lad OK, so my suggestion is to start with the reset. These have had issues with stiff steering according to a quick Google search.
@@MiracleMAX the steering on my i30 is not stiff, quite the opposite, but yes I've also read last night that there are known issues with the steering in general. I've already called the official Hyundai service center, they'll check it next week.
@@Just_a_Lad No worries, let us know what you find 👍
Po jaka cholerę ściągasz poduszkę i kierownicę? Bez sensu, wystarczy ją przechylić i śrubki osłon są widoczne.
Thank you for your positive comment. I also made it a lot easier for the camera to be in position. You are correct though, the steering wheel did not need to come off to do that job.
