Re: Toyota Hilux bump steer shake
More than anything else mentioned, this sounds more like a tyre / wheel problem. Is one of the rims perhaps buckled / out of true? Are the front rims both seated properly? Honestly this also feels like a wheel or tire that is loose. Swapped out all 4 wheel and tyres to eliminate the possibility tho...

Re: Toyota Hilux bump steer shake
Thanks for the replies james and thabo. Quick update additional info. Engine mounts were also broken about a year ago, so were replaced under warranty. Tie rods were replaced along with steering rack, so also eliminated that as a possible cause. Eliminated the suspension and wheels and tires by swap...

Re: Shaky steering
So I had my vehicle in and out of the toyota garage for the last two weeks. They changed tires, checked bearings, went over the steering column, etc. Ended up replacing the entire steering rack with tie rods. Problem still persists. Could there be sn issue with the steering pump not holding pressure?

Re: Shaky steering
Thanks for your input Ricky. I did read up quite a bit on the polyurethane bushes and believe they will not be the best fit for me. It does seem however like the rubber bushes are cast into the steering rack and is not split like the polyurethane bushes. Will take the bakkie back to Toyota end of th...

Re: Shaky steering
Hi Danie. Thank you for the advice. Took the protection plates off today and there is a lot of movement in the bushes. Is this a common problem with toyota? I will go online tonight and see where I can find these bushes. Any suggestions? I am in Namibia, so options here are somewhat limited. Car act...

Shaky steering
Hi. This is my first post on the forum, although I visit quite frequently. I own a 2016 hilux with an absolute unbearable steering wheel shake at slow speeds. The bakkie has been in to Toyota dealership 4 times over the last few months. They have replaced tie rods after my private mechanic identifie...
