Product Information
There are multiple possible steering racks installed in your Volvo from the factory. This steering rack is a direct replacement for the following numbers: 9209982, 867124, 8684272, 30723784, 30778111, 31202966. IF you do not know what rack is currently installed in the car, then please contact us with your VIN to avoid ordering the incorrect part.
-To determine what type of steering system you have (with or w/o speed dependant/sensitive steering), look for a pressure control solenoid that is mounted on the steering rack. If you do have this solenoid then you do have the speed dependant/sensitive steering type.
Volvo changed the design on the rack so a new pressure line, new return line, and coupler must also be replaced at the time of rack replacement. When replacing this rack & pinion it is also imperative that you order the following items:
- P/n 8684299
- P/n 8684307
It is imperative that you completely flush out your vehicle's power steering system fluid to remove any contaminants or foreign bodies BEFORE you install this rack to avoid premature failure.
Power steering racks (rack and pinion) are usually a lifetime component for most cars. However, there are certain scenarios in which a power steering rack can fail and will need to be replaced. We often find that poor maintenance of the system (leaks, old fluid, damaged hoses) can cause premature failure. Part failures within the rack itself are also common. Seals can fail causing leaks and poor system pressure. We also find that worn inner tie rod boots that are damaged can allow for water, dirt, and other contaminants to get inside the rack causing havoc with the power steering system as a whole. If you rack is leaking or making grinding sounds, it will need to be replaced.
Rack and Pinion Assembly Failure Symptoms- Leaks at sealing points
- Tight steering feel
- Grinding noises
- Numb spot in steering
- Car wandering
