Installation Notes and Tips

Verify the vehicle year, model, and steering configuration before ordering, especially on BMW 318i, 318is, 318ti, 325i, and 325is applications with male-threaded connections. Compare the original rack and pinion assembly to confirm port style, mounting points, and overall configuration before installation. After replacement, the steering system should be inspected, filled, and aligned according to factory service procedures.
