Great video indeed. I have been having the same issue with my 2012 Toyota Camry I took it to several different mechanics but they all say different things. So finally I to the Toyota dealership and they wanted to charge me $1200.00 to replace this STAR BUSHING. By watching this video I hope I will be able to accomplish this task but removing so many things is mind-boggling. Thank you sir for the great video and the part number. God Bless you.
I had the same problem, the dealership wanted crazy amounts so that’s why I called my friend who is very handy and we were able to remove all the parts and put them back together! Good luck! :)
Thank you sir. I could not find any videos on 2014 Toyota Venza's. I called Toyota to get the bushing and they said that they did not service that part for venza's. It was only for Camry's. So after removing the the airbag and the the heater floor duct I removed the 2-12 mm motor bolts. I used a mirror to look up inside where the coupler would sit at and I found the green coupler pieces everywhere. (I did not have to drop the steering column or take the steering wheel off). Went to Toyota and they would not sell me one for a venza. I had to tell them it was for Camry although I had the part number from your video. Anyway I blew the broken pieces out of the servo and install the new coupler and everything worked great. No more noise.
Hello, thanks for the video, I was able to do it. I live in Tampa and totally canceled the noise, I had been looking for someone to do it for over a year.
In your area also...how long did it take? Debating let a mechanic do it. As I hate dealing with trim and panels and such. Did yours rattle on rough pavement?
Appreciate the video. About to do this myself. I have the 2012 Camry Hybrid. Do you know if the hybrid has the same setup? Pretty confident this would fix my issue also
I have 2017 Camry making a clicking noise Only at a specific point when rotating the steering wheel while idling. Is that the same bushing or could be the column U-Joint
How to identify that only this part is damaged? Any know particular symptoms? My steering is auto spinning all the way right after I hit my right front tire to a pole. Could it be this part only?
Not really because the hydraulic pump is connected to the steering wheel rod and the only way to open the pump is by removing the steering wheel! It looks very complicated but if you have some mechanical experience it should not be a problem replacing it by yourself!
I have avalon 2015 and my steering wheel has a rattling sound when going over humps or bumpy road ... could this be an issue ... i hope you reply to my comment
I had the same problem and I was trying to figure out where that sound was coming from for months before a friend of mine told me that he had the same issue! It could be the same situation with you too!
I have a Toyota avensis 2010 in europe with electric steering. And was thinking it might be suspension strut top mounts or tie rod ends or the stabiliser rods until I bumper on this video and a few others on UA-cam with the same issue. How can I check if my toyota model which is a European car in contrast to yours which is USA. And what happens if you leave that bushing as it is, broken. Is it of paramount importance to change it or will it carry on working with no issues for the safety of the car?
I’m not sure if it is so important for the steering but I couldn’t stand the sound! It was soo annoying! :) You should probably consult a mechanic or try to find the steering wheel manual for your vehicle and you should probably find your answer there!

Do you have a video or an example of the noise it was making? My Camry is making a rattle noise but not sure if it is the star bushing
@@danielmezadrums unfortunately I didn’t record the noise!
@@cripton3321 Did the noise sound like this by chance? I made short of what I'm hearing ua-cam.com/users/shortsscoMn_5Z8Ys?feature=share

I have the same issue on my Venza '09...however, I am not able to do this work myself. 😣
Find someone that’s somewhat handy and I’m sure both of you can do it! Good luck!
how did you do this without dropping the column? I am going to make this repair tomorrow or this weekend.
Thanks to this video I just saved a lot of money by doing this repair myself. Worked like a charm! Thanks!
My pleasure! :)
great job! i liked it, y disconnect battery? u sure its not suppose to be the 'intermediate shaft', my knocks all the time b/c of the u joint? thanks
I have the same problem in my camry so I have the bushing and installed it by my self thank you for this great video..
You’re welcome!
Thanks Man! That clicking is so annoying! :) Now I’ll fix it
Wait a minute, you disconnected the battery and then reconnected again to turn the steering wheel ? Thanks !

I’m not 100 % sure but it should work!

Great video. But please how were you able to still turn the steering wheel when the car is off and negative disconnected. Thanks
The hydraulic doesn’t work but you can still turn the steering wheel.
Okay thanks
@Cripton awesome video! Thanks for including the part number too.
The part is about $15 on eBay but getting to the part is a pain in the b…!
@@cripton3321 what is the part number or name of the part .
@@JimmyHensley36 you can see the name and the part number at the very beginning of the video!

Excellent...do you need to to any programming after?
No, no further action is needed!
@@cripton3321 😊🌷
ok vid, u didn't show how to remove the steering wheel, like missing a step thanks
Have a good time.
Is there such a part in the Toyota yaris model 2008 or not?
A have the same problem .
I’m not sure about your model!
You better consult with a mechanic!
bu durum benim 2005 vvti de de var özellikle soğuk havalarda tıkır tıkır ses yapıyor acaba benim araçtakşde böylemi
does anyone in the Miami area can do this? How can Toyota design this Hell Hole?
Amazing video, where do I get the part?
I’m happy if I was able to help! Ebay or Amazon, just look at the catalog number of the part at the beginning of the video! Good luck!
Thank you man for the video
Great video. The damper your replaced was it Metal or rubber?
It was a very hard plastic with silicon liner inside
What is it called?
I have same issue in 2016 Camry , can I use same part number?
Sure no problem! I couldn’t find the part number as well but when I did I wanted to help everybody else with the same problem!
Good luck
please tell me the name of this "star"
@@Mandyuk you can see the name and the serial number of the part at the beginning of the video!

You should probably consult with a mechanic if you want to be sure what the problem is!
Thank you, you are the best...
Thank you!
I’m glad if this video helped you!
Thanks for the video boss! The noise went away but stability control system light came on did anyone have that problem
Have you check if all the connections and wiring are properly connected?
Give thanks BOSS
Was it doing a rattling noise ?
More like a clicking noise!
More like a clicking noise!
I fixed mine, but my steering wheel didn’t go back on straight and my traction control light didn’t come off.
@Michael Harbo what is servo
@michaelharbo663 No that's wrong info. This part makes a rattle when it goes bad.
What is that part called
Damper Electric!
You can see the part number at the beginning of the video!
Good luck!
@@cripton3321
Bro if i run the car without replacing this broken damper. Can it cause any big issues later??
I’m not 100% sure, maybe you should consult with a mechanic! But the noise gonna drive you nuts! :)
Good luck
My car wont start after this what should i do ?
You probably forgot to connect some of the electrical wires under the steering wheel! Double check the connections.
Couldn't you do this with removing the steering wheel?
Not really because the hydraulic pump is connected to the steering wheel rod and the only way to open the pump is by removing the steering wheel! It looks very complicated but if you have some mechanical experience it should not be a problem replacing it by yourself!
@@cripton3321 there is a hydraulic pump? Its an electric pump though?
@@xgetbackupx I apologize, my bad!
It’s electric motor! :)
@@cripton3321 this looks fairly easy just nervous about taking the wheel off and on 😓
