Recall Campaign - Inspection of Steering Shaft
sengkang:
Guys, that Tut Tut sound is a problem in the steering shalf coupling. I changed mine twice at TC ubi. 1st one changed on 2 yrs warranty period and 6 months later again when i started hearing it again. Heard its a common problem in other cars as well. But do get it changed by TC if your car is still in warranty.

Anyone knows is it a major problem? Because I can live with it, any comments? :confused1: :out:
Thanks for the feedback as I am not alone.

i think u probably visited the UBI workshop. If u go BT tcm, the moment u highlight the issue, no further question ask, they just change for me. I had been to ubi shop and they keep giving excuses not to replace.
IMHO, the sound is not only irritating but would most likely increase wear and tear of your car, why I said so cause when u turn the wheel angel until u could have the sound and during which u go over a hump or deep enough depression on the road, you could acutally feel the steering like running loose like got something just rub up and down the steering shaft. as if Masturbating the shaft ;D, so decided to change as soon as its due for servicing.
Besides they got 6mth warranty, so if change already and the prob persists, I presume it should still be covered if promptly reported.
jovially:
need to check, are you guy alway fully turn the steering to left and right when you make a u-turn?
rontan:
the Tuk...Tuk...tuk.. sound will hear when doing slow movement like parking whereby full turning is required.
