Common Steering Issues Addressed

  • Hard steering during the first few minutes of driving
  • Power steering pump noise caused by air in the system after service
  • Steering that does not return to center after a turn
  • Internal bypass from worn spool valve sealing surfaces
  • Fluid leaks from worn rack seals or related steering components

Installation Notes and Tips

For 2001-2002 Oldsmobile Aurora installation, use an in-line filter and OE fluid, and flush the hydraulic power steering system during service. Verify front-end alignment and inspect the return line for restriction or kinks if the steering does not return to center. Bleed the system completely after installation to remove trapped air and reduce pump whine.

Each Cardone rack and pinion assembly is remanufactured to rigorous quality and performance standards and factory test driven before release. The process replaces worn rubber sealing components, uses new premium parts where needed, and applies a protective finish to support durability in service.
