2017 Mitsubishi Mirage G4 ES, Automatic CVT TransSECTION Steering Column Shaft Total Rotation Torque Check
- Install the nut to the end of the steering column shaft. Then use the preload socket (Special tool: MB990326) to rotate the shaft at a rate of one turn per 4 to 6 seconds, and then measure the total rotation torque.
Standard value:
Total rotation torque: 1.25 N.m (11 in-lb) or less
Torque fluctuation: 0.5 N.m (4.0 in-lb) or less
NOTE: Rotate by 180° in left and right directions from the neutral position, and measure the total rotation torque. - When the measured value is not within the standard value, replace the steering column shaft assembly (Refer to SERVICE PRECAUTIONS ).
