Hyundai i40 steering experts

We’d be more than happy to fix your your Hyundai I40 steering knock. Similar to the Hyundai I30 Steering Clunk / Knock, the steering column is removed to gain access to the Electric Power Steering Motor which enables us to replace the coupling / bush that wears out, creating the awful clunk noise.

It is also similar on some Elantra, Veloster, Santa Fe and Sonata Models.

The Hyundai I40 steering column repair is more time consuming than the I30 due to the extra components to remove such as the Knee air bag, brake switch and wiring. The column itself is also heavier than the I30 and a little bit more fiddly to remove from the vehicle.

It is also essential that the SAS or Steering angle sensor be re-calibrated after carrying out this repair as warning lights will sometimes appear on the dashboard after the repair is complete.

Frequently Asked Questions

A little plastic bush called a Spyder Bush causes the Hyundai i40 steering knock. Usually around $30. After wearing out and losing its gears or teeth (which stop it from meshing) the plastic star-shaped bush tends to fail. As a result, this creates the hideous knocking or clunking noise.

Despite the simple cause, it’s quite a complex job and will usually be completed in 3 hours.

It’s best to have this repair carried out as soon as possible after you hear the knock noise. Otherwise it can cause other issues with the steering column which makes things alot more costly.
