About Power Steering Box

Power steering, also known as power assisted steering, makes steering a motor vehicle easier for the driver by reducing the amount of force that is required to be applied to the steering wheel when trying to manoeuvre the car and almost every vehicle that is built nowadays has some form of power steering system.

Although electric power assisted steering is rising in popularity, by far the most prevalent system at present is hydraulic power.

Hydraulic steering employs a pump, which is normally driven by a belt.  The pump generates pressure and the driver’s control is provided by either a rack and pinion or a Corsa Vauxhallpower steering box. Whichever of the two systems is used, the basic operation is the same. The fluid pressure generated by the pump is used to push against a piston.  When the steering wheel is turned, pressure flows to one side, causing the piston, which is attached to the steering gears, to move.  The driver is thereby able to allow hydraulic pressure to do most of the work involved in turning the steering wheel.

Although the rack and pinion system is felt to provide lighter weight and greater control precision, the Corsa Vauxhall power steering box is considered to be harder wearing and possess greater durability.  

Vauxhall Corsa trivia

  • To celebrate signing a record deal with EMI, the lead singer of the Arctic Monkeys, Alex Turner, immediately bought himself a Vauxhall Corsa.
  • After Richard Maddox (a pensioner in the UK) had his bright yellow Corsa vandalised by neighbours in his quiet country village, a stream of Corsas drove by his home in support. Vauxhall also renamed the yellow they use for their cars to Maddox Yellow!
  • If you want your headphones to match your Corsa, then you can check out the set of headphones designed by Vauxhall as part of the UK Beatbox Championship of 2011.
  • The Corsa might, on the surface, not seem like it has a lot in common with the Series 2 Lotus Elise, and... it doesn't really. However, the two cars do share the same indicator and wiper stalks!
  • The original TV advert for the first Corsa sold in the UK had supermodels introduce the vehicle to British motorists. The four models were Kate Moss, Linda Evangelista, Christy Turlington, and Naomi Campbell.
