David gp Posted September 2, 2013 Share Posted September 2, 2013 The power steering gear of a MB6 are the same of a EK/EG? I'm looking for the screw to its regulation and can not find it... I think there is a problem and do not know where it comes from. To reach the 50/60 MPH direction seems to float and when passing or changing lanes the car makes strange movements. In a EG forum I found this, but in the steering box of my MB6 I haven't found that screwhttp://www.civic-eg.com/viewtopic.php?t=19324 Sorry for my english mates, im from Spain Thanks!

Honda Paul Posted September 2, 2013 Share Posted September 2, 2013 I think your on about the steering torque screw on the back of the rack.... Has a hexagonal recess in the middle of it. These have to be set to Hondas spec. Unlikely it would move though,unless the racks been replaced or fiddled with! I'm guessing you've checked the usual? Tyre pressures correctShocks aren't leaking Anti roll bar all fine Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KiNK43 Posted September 2, 2013 Share Posted September 2, 2013 Unfortunately the rack guide pin can't be adjusted on mb civics. Eg dc2 can. Not sure about ek.If it wasn't set right there would be some slop in the steering wheel side to side.It most likely something simple as mentioned. Odd tyres, bad pressures, wheel alignment, bad shock, One other thing the inner joint on the rack can get worn. Again pretty sure you can't replace them on mb civic, as they dont unscrew like normal inner rod end. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David gp Posted September 3, 2013 Author Share Posted September 3, 2013 First thing I did was to align the direction. I checked the tire pressure and I fitted the stock wheels. Shocks BC Racing BR Type have 11mil km and leak. It's very strange Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

David gp Posted September 4, 2013 Author Share Posted September 4, 2013 The shocks do not leak fluid or have severe hits. The problem can not be because of some bush from the upper arm or lower part of the chassis? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KiNK43 Posted September 6, 2013 Share Posted September 6, 2013 You'll have to do a visual inspection and Get car off the ground and start swinging off stuff with a pry bar. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
