Steering rack repair kit for BMW f25 x3 - the easy way to do it at home!?
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 3 фев 2025
- These problems on the steering rack are common on the F series, u can feel it when u drive it over a pothole or when u shake the steering wheel with the engine off.
in the video u will find how i managed the situation and the result of the work. i don't recommend changing yourself, but if u feel so, be free to do it on your own risk. There is a procedure made by BMW of installing this kit that I did not follow. But i saved 300$ and that's make me happy.
I was experiencing issues with the steering, was very lose and the car would drift left and right when driving on the highway...quite dangerous. I ordered the parts direct from BMW, surprisingly cheap only 35 euros. Fitted it myself (as shown in the video), it now drives like new. Incredible fix, really appreciate you taking the time to make the video!!! Great work!!
This works to x5 e70? I have the same issue thanks.
Did the fix last for you over long period of time? I read a comment from someone, that it came back after one month.
How did you tighten it, how many Nm?
I thought I needed to share my experience in this case. First of all, thank you for sharing this video.
I had the same issue. I heard knocking sound when I moved the steering wheel with the car off and when I hit the speed bump, pothole, rough road and a bit shaky which could be dangerous. My car is X3 35i with 46.000 miles. I went to bmw and they said it was the control arms. And I still heard the knocking sound and went back to them. They couldn’t figured it out and I wasted $1100 USD to replace the control arms which ended up fixing nothing. I found this video before I went to bmw, but I trusted what they said. It turned out disappointing. So I decided to replace the part on the video which was much cheaper. I bought the part and the grease approx. $50. And then I went to an independent shop specializes in bmw car. They had no idea of this case so I showed them this video to replace the part and voila! The knocking sound is gone. I am so happy. My car is like a new car again. I ended up paying $50 for the part and $150 for the labor. I’d recommend to replace this part first if you have the same case before you replace other things which could be much pricey.
I am so glad that this video made a change to you. Thx for your sharing Mika!
Was your car making a horrible knock over pot holes
@@TheJourneyofanBMWOwner why didn’t you use the new cover with the 3 pin holes did it not fit
same issue, knocking sound right underneath the pedals, almost rattling, and more pronounced once driven over speed bumps. Replaced both control arms and didn't resolve the issue. I grabbed the inner tie rod and shock it as hard as I can, and noticed a little play, but not enough to duplicate the rattling. Even shaking the car viously still won't duplicate the sound. Only while driving. Steering feels semi normal. But no major clunking when moved side to side. HOwever, a rapid left and right movement when car is off, you do hear a clunk, which is why I'm here watching this video. Just ordered the kit from ebay. I have a 2012 X3 F25.
@@georgeawad3241 how's now? did you replace it? I have the same issue in my f20
Did this to mine. Solved problem 100%. Didn't bother with specialist tool, tightened cap til aligned with rack. Tried various tightnesses without noticing any change.
Good job!!🍻
I replaced the piston on my 3.0d steering rack. Access is a pig, but managed with the help of a 4 poster. I screwed the new piston in to far and the steering felt funny. I screwed it out till level with the housing, now it’s fine. I know there is a proper bmw procedure for setting the correct pressure but I winged it.! Good video though.👍👍
Congratulations!! Thx
внимание необходимо правильно затянуть !!! Машина в преподнятом состоянии так чтобы колёса были на весу.
затянуть на 70 Nm затем руля повернуть до отказа 4 раза на лево и 4 на право.Затем открутить на 60 градусов .
what if it's not in a raised state? Does the car need to be on jack stands to do this job? Many Thanks
You are the only intelligent person to do it from the top 😂.
I don't care what the process actually is. I'm going to do it this way
So. Amazingly. Simple.
I only recently got a F25, and almost the very first day i noticed a slight "ticking" when turning the wheel left/right as you demonstrated - but not always.
There is a feel of movement and sometimes the sound, so mine may not be as far gone as yours was.
Will definitely check the wear on this part next time the opportunity presents it self.
same with mine , did your steering felt heavy when you changed it at the start ?
Also Check the steering shaft. Maybe the joints are defective.
@@tomek9562 just changed mine and feels so much better but steering very heavy. Did yours loosen over time?
wow looks like a really easy repair job. i don't have a bmw but my junker car makes this exact noise too.
I do the same thing for my F30 320d from 2012. The noise has disappeared and driving comfort has returned.....Let's go it's THE SOLUTION
Did you go in this way or on the f30 is it underneath
@@101jonnelin f30 it’s underneath
Not possible to attack it from the top on an x3 with the N55 engine. You have to drop the Splash shield underneath the engine and that will give you plenty of room. Also, in my situation, the aluminum lid is different fron the one your X3 has. They one i have had three slots in a triangle pattern. Other f models could remove the lid with an angle grinder wrench. I could not. Super tight. Purchased the tool to do it properly for 25 euro. Good luck everyone.
Hey @Juan, I have a X3 F25 02/2013 with N55 engine and want to fix my streering with this kit. I already checked from above and as you said, there is no chance to replace it from top. But I have a car lift and if I understood you correct, from underneath with a car lift it should be no problem, right? Can you tell me which special tool I need to open it and where I can buy it? Thanks in advance!
@Juan I received a notification from RUclips that you replied to my question but I can‘t see your answer anywhere :/
@@MotorenMatze i think you tube is removing my posts. They have embedded links for the tool.
@@JSarmiento. Don't worry! I replaced the part on Saturday and everything worked well. I took a 22mm 1/2" socket and cutted the front with an angle grinder, so that 3 pins were left and I could open it.
Damn, finally the car drives like I expect it from a BMW. The clicking noise is completely gone :)
@@MotorenMatze let me know if it comes back. Mine did after a month.
Can my friend F10 be repaired like this?
Can this be done without lifting the wheels off the ground?
@@Nick-i6w2 yes
Thank you so much for the tutorial. I have the problem that the new one won't go in, it stuck on the first ring try to push in but won't move. Do you have any suggestion. Thanks
Something gone wrong. Did you move the steering wheel while the bushing was out?? You may not do that.
If you put the old piece back, it will go in ? Thx
So i replaced the thrust piece, however had to use a torque wrench to tighten it to 70nm torque spec. But also had to loosenit a few time to get the right feel. I still have the knocking clunk, most if the time its coming from passenger side front wheel. I think it could be control arms, but im not sure. It seems like a common issue as per some blogs Ive read.
I’ve also got the same knocking noise from the front passenger wheel. Did you end up replacing the control arms? Did that fix the issue??
@bradleyhall5789 the whole suspension was replaced.
I ordered the part yesterday, in fact I hear a clicking noise when I pass over Anne's backs only and when I block, on the other hand when I drive directly I don't feel anything at all, and strangely it's also only when the car is warm and has driven well, when it is cold, in the morning for example, there is no sense.
I also feel a click in the brake pedal.
2017 F30 Phase 2
Hi, what page you used to order the part? Thanks
Would this part cause juddering when turning right? I have play in the steering
Was yours saying steering behavior affected drive moderate before the repair?
will this work f10 ??
My F15 X5 has exactly the same symptoms. Dealer has replaced tie rods, and lower control arms in an effort to fix, but noise is still there when engine is off. When running, no noise, but the x5 wanders terribly. The repair kit does not show fitment for the F15, but I wonder if it is a similar setup and if BMW is doing anything for F15 owners with this issue? I'm actually still under factory warranty until September.
I guess is the same. I saw some pics on the web and the steering case is identical.
@@TheJourneyofanBMWOwner I'm still under factory warranty and I told my service advisor about this fix, and this video...but he says although this is probably the fix for my issue, BMW doesn't include the F15 in the fix. So...I asked him if they plan on just replacing the entire rack instead. He's going to contact BMW and see what they plan on doing.
Hi I'm having exactly the same problem can ask what your outcome was please?
Is this working for x3 e83 too? Thank you!
Very helpful video. Will do the same. Thanks a lot for your work. But How tight the screw should be so its not damaging the steering rack?
As the old one I did.
@@TheJourneyofanBMWOwner I think he was asking for torque specs
@@Subydayo I don't know the torque. That's why I was guided him to lock the washer till matches the housing edges.
In the manual the torque is over 70Nm. But there is a complicated procedure with a special tool with fasten and unfasten the nut. At that Nm the rack will not work if you let it like that.
You can find the procedure online.
Cheers!
The BMW dealer did not know about this kit, but knew about the klicking from the radial movement of the rod. This is not considered as slack/clearance from BMW. Quote parts catalogue: ATTENTION!
This repair kit is only a solution for
vehicles with acoustic irregularities
in the steering gear!
It is mandatory to observe the repair
instructions!
The dealer checked the repair instructions and it required a €1500 special tool for the job. Beats me! Seems like it will work fine without👍
Hi...great video.. it is necessary to disconnect the car battery?
Nope..👌
how much torque on the cap? is it until its flush witht he rack body?
Does it matter of the rubber piece is installed before or after the cap is installed?
Nope
I experience such a weird issue today. When making a sharp right turn to pull into a spot I lost my power steering for a good 2 seconds. Out of nowhere the steering wheel got very stiff as I was attempting to turn the wheel, almost felt like there was no power steering I almost hit a car next to me luckily I slammed on my brakes. And 2 seconds later the power steering came back and there were never any warning kits in the dash. The one thing I did notice is the gauge cluster was flickering but that’s it. This was in the morning and ever since that, it hasn’t happened again. Now I’m just afraid what would happen if this was on a highway. Has this happened to anyone else
Will this kit work for a 2011 X3 XDrive281? I think I have non variable steering, Vin code for steering is LL
Will work. The one in the video is 2011.
Hi did you perform this? I also ahve the same year and make as you. :) I'm planning on doing this myself. How did you make it out and any tips you can give? Did you do it yourelf? Thanks Greetings from Boston!
It worked but it wasn't exactly plug and play, I had my very long time mechanic do it and I came down and looked at it when he had it apart and we talked best about how to make it work. And I'm sorry to say that I forgot exactly what we did to make it work better than it first did when he installed it. It has been driven many many miles since then and so far everything's okay @@armani007E55
Any repair kit for F10
Does this work on the x5 f15 model?
Would this also work for hydraulic rack, say f10 m550d?
After reviewing the video and gone on my car. On my X3, this is not possible to do like this ( the engine and components take much more places than in this video ). I have X3 Xdrive 20D from 2015. Will try to find another solution.
The single solution is to make the change from underneath. That's the original way to do it. But u have many steps to do with this solution.
But, just for your info, going to a garage will charge you with 200€ or more just for this change.
Awesome video . Thx!

@@pignapoke6772 hi. I don't think so.
What torque did you tighten it to afterwards?
Thinking the same thing. Wouldn't want to over tighten
@@djarell9 I did mine last week and to be honest I'm not too sure it's a good idea without the correct equipment. Initially my steering was tight and didn't self centre so I backed it off until it felt 'normal'. That could still mean that it's too tight but withotu symptoms and I can picture all sorts of issues with rack damage if the backlash is not correct on the rack and pinion. Apparently there is some kit you can buy to measure the backlash properly while adjusting the cover screw but it costs best part of £2000! Maybe a job best left to the professionals with the coprrect equipment unless you're getting rid of the car soon.
@@dopiaza2006 I appreciate you. Thanks for that. Hadn't had this issue with E36 or E92. Just got a F25 so we'll see
70nm then back out 1/4 turn for anyone who wants to know.

Sorry mate, don't know, but u can try to finde a kit made by colourlock.net
I replaced this bushing but nothing changed, yes now when the engine is off there is much less knocking, but still some noise, and when engine running and i start to move slowly I still have a knock when playing with the steering wheel (right left). I thought it will disappear but it's not. So this bushing doesn't change anything. I just spent money for nothing.
For you it seems like it was to late. Sorry mate. Try finde a specialist for more information in this situation.
@@TheJourneyofanBMWOwner maybe i have something else, control arm bushings or links, but like i said this repair kit is only fixing knocking when the engine is off. And doesn't do anything else.
@@hetanosgago9508 My F26 is the same as yours. I just replaced it yesterday. The knocking sound is disappear about 90% (there is still little knocking sound when i try to shake the wheel during engine off. Driving through the pothole still have noise.
@@TheJourneyofanBMWOwner Does your F25 remain some knocking noise while driving over the pothole? I just replaced yesterday with exactly the same product as you have. My F26 still have clunking noise about 20 % as it used to be before replacing.
What was the problem then?
Hi did u hear a weird noise when turning corners as well as when the car is stood?
Nope
Hi is this same procedure for the bmw f30? Thanks
Exactly the same.
For those with a right hang drive car, it’s a pain to get to
Thanks a lot of the vid. I just got the part i ordered. I have a question please how do you fix that blue spring with the part? I can't see anywhere to attach theme together? Am i missing something?
1. Install the bushing
2. Put the spring
3. Install on the cap that rubber part
4. Tighten the cap

Sorry 😞
@@TheJourneyofanBMWOwner thanks for the effort
First noise was with ignition off , next was with ignition on...the rack as i can see is electric so I have some questions...
Both tests were made with the engine off.
just had this replaced but now my steering is way too tight and wont self center. any idea? thanks
It is possible that you tighten the cap to much. It should be tight as the old one.
What other grease can I use?
Only BMW
Sir, our 2014 x3 sometimes the steering feels wacky loose, then drives fine and have a whine, thought it was alternator, but not. Ours has 101,000 miles on it. Your thoughts please.
Wheel bearings are usually the problem with wine and also the ac compressor.
Fits it on E90 LCI too? I have a problem with knocking from the steering wheel, i checked all, i have to replace the plastic (nylon or what) piece.
Only on F models

@TheJourneyofanBMWOwner ok thank you. I'll go from the bottom side. I do wonder if this will make my rattle noise I get in the winter. Everything in the front end is super tight and good. New shocks as well. Also changed the sway bar links.
Was there any symptoms similar to warped rotors or uneven brake pad wear? Ie shuddering steering when braking?
Nope
Is this not a temporary fix ?
Until next time...
Hi, great video. Where did you buy it?
You can find it on Ebay. Search the code. 👌
It’s only $30. Google it
I have the same issue with my BMW X5, however all the kits show for every F series apart from the X5 and X6. Has anyone else used the same kit for the same car as mine and it worked?
Did you ever get this sorted? I have an f15 x5 with what I believe is the same issue..
Did you jack the car? Do you think its easier to do this from the engine bay or from below by removing the engine tray?
No jack was involved in this video. In my case, was easy from the engine bay.
@@TheJourneyofanBMWOwner i haven't had a chance to attempt it but looking online, for the f3x you can only get access from below the car. Anyway, nice vid!
On 3.0d you can only get to it from underneath. You need a special 3 prong tool and a 24mm spanner and a bent leg pliers to pull it out.👍
what did you use on the wrench to open it?
The plastic/rubber center plug should be installed after the cap is installed/ torqued to allow any air/over-greased pressure to be relieved.
Good to know. Do you happen to know the torque specifications for this?
Great vid. Thanks. I have the same problem, but when the engine is on ! Is this the same issue ? I read that this kit is only working when the engine is off...
Do this first, is the cheapest start in finding the problem. Also if you hear some noise up front while driving over the speed bump, it could be this also. But for more information find a garage to check your bushings...
@@TheJourneyofanBMWOwner thanks !!! I will.
@@TheJourneyofanBMWOwner Hello Sebastos. Could you share a bit why you advise to go to BMW to change it ? Any risks ?

You did something wrong. When u changed the thrust the steering moved. That was the single and most important thing to be aware of.
Did you tried to remove the thrust and put the steering wheel in the right position? How are the wheels, are them aligned?
@@TheJourneyofanBMWOwner hi it must’ve moved when we put the thrust piece in. It was closing time so I took the car as it is. Car drives fine and certainly feels better but the steering wheel itself has to be turned for the actual wheels to be straight. I have ordered the special too as the mechanic struggled to open it using axle grinder key. Will it harm my car driving it like this.
The tool will take a few days to come. The trust piece was put on while the car was high up on the ramp. He’s accessed it from the bottom of the car.
I took an appointment at BMW dealer, to change this bushing. They didn't even know about this. When I explained to them they were surprised. The part cost $58.00 CAD, and they said approximately 45 minutes of job. I would do it myself but i don't have a tool.
what was the charge from BMW?
@@chipschug1720 don't touch it, it doesn't change anything, it's only worked when the engine is off. But if you have free play when engine running it won't fix it.

But my 328 has some free play when engine running and i moving slowly. But if you want just fix the knock when you just siting in the car and playing with steering wheel then yes you can change it.
