What is the Power Steering Control Valve all about?

Power steering pumps create high pressure in order to push fluid through the system, into the power steering rack, and provide good handling. There are many different components that play critical roles in this process, and the power steering control valve is one of them. You might be more familiar with this as the flow-control valve.

In most setups, the power steering control valve is located at the outlet of the pump, where the fluid leaves the pump and enters the supply line. It regulates the pressure of the fluid in the line to the correct PSI. If the valve fails, the fluid pressure may become too low or too high. Excessive pressure can cause damage to the supply line, creating leaks and fire hazards (power steering fluid is flammable).

Keep in mind:

  • The power steering control valve is not part of any service or maintenance regimen.
  • It is not possible to check the valve for operation during basic maintenance, so it will only be inspected if there is a problem.
  • Failure of the control valve will create problems with steering and handling.
  • In most instances, valve failure will require replacement of the power steering pump itself.

How it's done:

  • The power steering control valve is checked for replacement
  • The power steering control valve is removed
  • The new power steering control valve is installed
  • The power steering system is refilled and checked for leaks
  • The engine is run and the power steering system operation is checked

Our recommendation:

While the power steering valve does not require any regular maintenance you may request that it is diagnosed if your car exhibits any of the symptoms. Your power steering system is an important component of your vehicle, ensuring simplified handling through all types of turns. However, a failing power steering control valve can cause drops in fluid pressure, creating harder steering. Have any malfunction or problem with your power steering system inspected by one of our expert mechanics immediately.

What common symptoms indicate you may need to replace the Power Steering Control Valve?

  • Hard steering at higher speeds
  • Whining noise during turning

How important is this service?

Your power steering system might not be as critical to vehicle operation as the engine and transmission, but it enhances safety and makes steering easier. If you notice any problems with your power steering system, have the vehicle inspected and the problem diagnosed as soon as possible.

John knows his stuff. Never felt like he was trying to 'upsell' anything, either. Will definitely look for him when I need a mechanic again, every time.

Audi TT Quattro L4-1.8L Turbo - Inspection / Diagnostics - Dallas, Texas
Mike was very professional and was knowledgeable about VW/AUDI. I have nothing but compliments regarding the mechanic as he was knowledgeable, professional and likable. My only complaint is that the mechanic did not have access to the tools needed to fix the problem. YourMechanic advertises "Audi service by top rated Audi mechanics at the convenience of your home or office" so I assumed they would be equipped with the ECU tool as that is used to troubleshoot and manage the multiple systems that make up the car. The mechanic confirmed the diagnosis (Steering needing calibrated) by looking up the same code that I looked up when reporting the issue. He did offer insight as to the probable cause which was the recent replacement of the ABS/ESP controller requiring the steering be calibrated. Your Mechanic's recommendation was to take it to an Audi dealer. I'll end up at Kwik Kar or one of the independent VW/Audi shops that have the necessary VCDS tool. Summary: Knowledgeable mechanic explained why the warning light was on but was not equipped with the necessary tools to fix it. I can see using YourMechanic for items like fluid changes and brake pad replacement but can not see using them for anything requiring troubleshooting as so much requires the mechanic to interface with the ECU and connected subsystems.
