    Just replaced everything on my corsa C. Tierods, inner and outer ball joints of the steeringrack and both control arms and driveshafts. Turned out that the steering rack was the issue all along 🤣 thanks for the video :)

    Good job, I have the same problem in the same car.
    I just wanted to thank you and confirm that it is the same steering rack from a 2004 Corsa C 1.3cdti (which is my car model).
    Greetings and thanks for making it easy.

      It is impossible to find the spare part in an official dealership in Spain, and the main spare parts websites are out of stock. Some Russian websites offer it but have a very dubious reputation.
      Any suggestions ​ @LarcsWorkshop

    Fair play to you, i have a 2011 combo c van thats knocking like fxxk!! My problem is I'm on my 2nd steering rack in in 4 years! In that time also, I've replaced both wishbones, droplinks, anti roll bar bushings, bottom ball joints, shocks, shock mounts, springs, amd even the anti roll bar itself!!!, which by the way looked to be at a different angle to the one i took off the van. My tyre wear seems pretty even, but the knocks just getting worse again lately. The van actually passed its DOE test with the knock in it, although it wasn't as prominent back in March. Beginning to think my van is haunted!!🙈🙈😆😆😆 Will have another look at it today and see if its just those bushings that are gone. Cheers. Paul in Ireland

      @LarcsWorkshop  Год назад

      Thanks, I thought it was a Vauxhall only part. I got mine from my local dealership. But searching online for GM part number 93190161, it looks like they might be available from places like Autodoc etc. Can't comment on their quality though?

    Hi, Excellent video. Just a quick question...Is there one of those bushes on each side of the steering rack? potentially requiring 2 kits if play is present on the other side? Thanks!

    • @LarcsWorkshop
      @LarcsWorkshop  Год назад

      Thanks, I think they only suffer wear at the end opposite the column because of the leverage it has.

      Could be any number of things, check it's not rubbing on something as it goes through the bulkhead. Otherwise, get it up on axle stands and have someone wiggle it while you're underneath. Good luck sorting it out 🤞.
