I NEVER knew how this worked!! You have the BEST way of describing how things work. Almost too quick, but fast enough to not lose people like me with short attention spans. Brilliantly done!
The most amazing thing about power steering to me is the simple fact that they always tend to be so reliable. Even when they do go out it usually takes a long time.
Your a great teacher. Your English is awesome. You are the first person that don't say "um" between words. I can really understand your video. Specially with your details description on each components and it's purpose. .
I'm sold, straight forward explanation, 8 min vid of your vid is typically 15-20 min from the other guys without the extra movements and talking. Love the dirty toothbrush pointer.
Been a mechanic for pushing 30 years now. Always had a pretty good understanding of what's going on inside a rack even though I never had one fully apart. This was a good video. In addition to being very informative, it was also good instructional lesson on how to use the proper tool for the job.
I've been learning everything I can about cars for 15 years and never knew this. I had no idea that power steering was so complex. Thanks for making such a great video!
speedkar99 I’m with Eddy. I’m not really a car guy but your videos are incredible. I watch a lot of videos on how things work and this is some of the best stuff I’ve seen regardless of subject matter
These videos are amazing! lol I love the humor it amazing... and the toothbrush hahahaha I literally can't stop laughing but i'm trying not to because the information is so good.. well done explaining something that is very technically complex in such a digestible manner. Your videos are great keep up the good work.
I retired from a Ford dealership. In old days we had to reseal power racks... I got really fast at it after doing a few. Great video and great explanation on the torsion bar input shaft.
One of the best explanations of rotary control valve operations. Many youtubers skip that part bcz they don't understand themselves the operation and importance of this part as the heart of power steering system.
Excellent videos. You sir, gave me the courage and instruction to perform a complete timing belt and water pump service on my 1MZ-FE V6. So... thank you! I saved over $1500 that I would have spent at my Lexus dealer.
I worked in TRW, one of the largest steering gear manufacturer in the world, for 20 years working on the hydraulic steering gear. Your explanation is THE best I've seen on the Internet. I don't think some of my colleagues at work couldn't explain it as well as you did. I don't know where you got your training but this video is A+. VERY WELL DONE. IMPRESSIVE! One additional info if I may... at 6:40 where you explain the inner workings of the valve... the "slots" you see on the input shaft has really tiny chamfers along the edge, called "metering edge" which is ground to micron precision, give you a precise amount of assist proportional to the "relative twist" of the input shaft and pinion. That "metering edge" is the heart of the hydraulic power steering system.
Wow thanks very much for that information and feedback, it makes sense that that controls the sensitivity. I would love to work in tier1 or OE one day!
I am a student at universal technical institute and this is far more helpful than what I've been learning in class. thank you and keep doing what your doing

Holy pepperoni power steering is more complicated than I expected. The genius of the torsion bar system is truly amazing that someone designed that decades ago. My tacomas pump is whining and in a few hours I coulda been fixing it I spent learning the exact way the system works. Quite fulfilling to learn. Thanks
I can't thank you enough for the fast pace and high info density. When I'm looking for this kind of video, it's usually because I'm in the middle of a repair and I'm stuck. On most channels I end up watching at 2x speed just to get to the info I'm looking for. Thank you for taking the time to research, plan, disassemble, film, and edit!
This guy really knows his stuff. This is the clearest video on power steering I've seen. Once you get past that toothbrush, these videos are worth their weight in gold.
Awesome video!! I just found your channel and i think we’re similar in the sense that we’re very “resourceful” when we work on our machines and we aren’t afraid to tear them apart to see whats inside. Thats the best part about working on cars. There are so many parts working together and they’re all fascinating. i try to impart that enjoyment on friends when they get work out of me but it takes a specific person to understand and care about whats going on instead of just mindlessly throwing parts at a car to fix a problem - or worse yet, taking it to the dealer for something that otherwise would cost no more than the parts themselves, a morning or two on a weekend, and a pair of dirty hands.
As a former rack and pinion steering engineer for an OEM, I commend you for your explanation. Very well done. The only correction is that the steering fluid flows thru precision metered lands on the edges of the slots in the input shaft.
I've always scratched my head at how power steering works, even after getting so-called explanations. This video is the first COMPLETE explanation I've seen. Thank you for making it.
Yes, I don't know what there is not to like about this video, why would you even watch it if it is not to your liking or interest is beyond me? There are plenty of weirdos out there.
This is a fantastic description of how power steering works. Even a complete amateur like me could understand it all first time round.. You are a brilliant teacher.
WOW ... the best (thorough and concise) explanation and demonstration of how a power steering (rack and pinion hydraulic) system actually works ! Bravo and thank you very much.
ew.. dude, you also use his underwear, he wouldn't be making an appearance holding the seat down right? I bet you're Latin, Latin moms use old underwear as cleaning rags. represent La Raza! LOL.
Talk about Modern Marvels, it's truly amazing how engineers designed something as complicated as a "Rack and Pinion" steering system. Great Teaching Tutorial, Thanks !!
Just replaced 2 racks in my truck because of defects in rebuilding process, someone be was sleeping on the job... Thanks for the education in how racks work! I'm subbed!!
Thanks, I’ve suffered terribly with bad racks, leaky, hard to steer, etc. Now I know more. Didn’t know those holes the fluid moves through were so small by the pinion gear. Easy to clog.
That's a really great video. One more bit of information: The control valve actually lets the steering pump free-wheel by letting the fluid flow easily from input to output when you're not using the steering wheel, so it's not all that in-efficient. It doesn't put much load on the engine until you begin to turn the steering wheel, and the control valve then blocks free-flow of fluid and forces it through the steering rack piston. That's why the engine RPM (at idle) drops a little when you turn the steering wheel, and if you turn the steering wheel all the way against the stop, the rack piston stops taking more fluid which causes the pressure to rise rapidly until the overpressure relief valve in the pump begins to let the excess fluid bypass the control valve. That's the hissing sound when you turn the steering wheel all the way. Thanks for the great video! I enjoyed every second and I enjoyed the fact that every second had something useful in it!
@@speedkar99 Oh, I see what you mean. Although with electric, you have to consider it's pump - an electron pump - aka the alternator - and it has to be larger to handle the increased load, and it's always turning and always sending full voltage to the electronic control module, which wastes some of that power all the time. The larger alternator puts more of a load on the engine, all the time. (Yes, a larger alternator has larger core losses even when producing small currents. Look up core losses in generators.) So the increase in vehicle efficiency isn't as great as you'd guess. But sure maybe you can get a couple percent better mileage - which could save you a few dollars a year - but my guess is that your entire savings is gone when you then also take into account the greater cost EPS to start with, and the greater cost when it dies and you have to replace it, and the much greater chances of it breaking: It's a very complex system involving wires, semiconductors, electromagnetics, and a computer chip more complex than the one that first landed on the moon: The average rate of failure and average yearly cost of EPS repairs per thousand cars FAR exceeds that for engine driven hydraulic power steering, and this cost severely consumes the slight fuel savings brought by EPS. Hydraulics last an extremely long time, are very simple, and nearly bulletproof.
You did a great job explaining the function of the hydraulic control valve. Some terminology was not correct, like lateral, but the hard part, you did a fantastic job with. No insult intended.
Hey, its the guy reviewing the TH-cam teachers videos. My goodness. Such a great explanation especially with the diagram. I like how you had three videos that talked about ABS system. 10 out of 10 my friend. 10 out of 10.
Yes, sir!....the human heart is so inefficient.......it keeps pumping when you're just sitting there and not thinking about anything :) great video, informative and entertaining as heck, keep up the great work!!
Ive looked at schematics a long time ago, but never heard about the torsion bar, so i could never quite understand how it worked. Very informative video!
Thank you , thank you! Best video on power steering that I have seen; your approach, humor and excellent point by point explanations are spot on. The magic happens at 5:50 👍
This is a very well presented video. The explanations and drawings are done so well that a person with limited mechanical knowledge can grasp the concept of power steering. 👍👍👍
I work as a mechanic and I still have a lot to learn. My friends think I'm this master mechanic, I watch his videos and I feel like a noob hahaha. Excellent videos, its nice to see how components actually work vs. just replacing them and moving on. I have replaced about a dozen a/c compressors this summer and many of them leaked. Watching his a/c compressor video makes me wonder if an o ring or gasket was bad. I know time is money and I work at a very small "ma and pa" shop, but I can't help to think how many parts could be repaired and work just as well if not better as a replaced aftermarket or junkyard part. Keep up the very informative videos! And tell your brother to keep buying more socks haha
Fantastic video subscribed. My kind of guy. He talks fast and is very good at communicating information. I not only appreciate that but am glad that people like me are out there 😉👍
@@speedkar99 greatly my dude. I feel like the vast majority of people cant keep up with me and i am forced to slow down and repeat myself everyday lol. Also you clearly know your stuff.
Thank you! I watched several videos on the subject but your hands on tear down coupled with a well worded explanation of the inner workings of each component put an end to my guess work.
You made top educational video. Your comments and notes go directly to the point and answer all questions one would come up with through your presentation. Excellent video length and it is very satisfactory. Many thanks for you brother.
I don't feel bad for the parts at all...the whole car didn't cost much, and it's too old to be reused...there's too many of these cars in junkyards that go straight to the crusher...without the thought being put into them as I've done here...think about those cars too...what a waste 😭
I NEVER knew how this worked!! You have the BEST way of describing how things work. Almost too quick, but fast enough to not lose people like me with short attention spans.
Brilliantly done!
Thanks very much for your feedback!
I didn't know myself before cutting it open to find out.
The most amazing thing about power steering to me is the simple fact that they always tend to be so reliable. Even when they do go out it usually takes a long time.
Man, you are the best! Came in knowing nothing about steering and left knowing something! Amazing crash course!
Thank you so much!
i love how now you can learn more on youtube than you can in any class
Sadly it's true
Exactly the tear-down I was looking for! Thanks for going into detail about the torsion bar and showing the diagram of the fluid flow.
Glad it helped. I too had to sit there and figure it out myself, it's hard to understand but not seeing the real thing.
This is hands down THE best explanation of a rack and pinion that I've ever seen!!! Great job sir!
You are welcome
Love how you explain things so plainly in your videos with toothbrush and all.
+Abdullah Al-Munim Thanks - I guess alot of people like my style
The best video explaining how hydraulic power steering works around steering column centre position. This is amazing.
Thanks!

You made top educational video. Your comments and notes go directly to the point and answer all questions one would come up with through your presentation. Excellent video length and it is very satisfactory. Many thanks for you brother.
You are welcome. Thanks for your kind feedback
GREAT JOB!! FULL, Thorough, Explanation in just a few minutes.
Thanks. Short and to the point is my style
This technology has been used for a very long time. It still blows my minds how genius Hydraulic systems are.
Thank you for simplifying the magic of power steering.
Easily the number one explanation of this matter on youtube; as usual; thanks.
Awesome video! Kinda feel bad about the parts and your brother's sock but it was a good sacrifice for the knowledge that was shared and learned.
I don't feel bad for the parts at all...the whole car didn't cost much, and it's too old to be reused...there's too many of these cars in junkyards that go straight to the crusher...without the thought being put into them as I've done here...think about those cars too...what a waste 😭
Best description of power steering on the internet!!!
