      A removable heat shield mat was installed on the steering gear at start of production. Be sure to install this mat if installing the old steering gear again.

      A removable heat shield mat on the steering gear was replaced by a bonded heat shield mat as a running change. It is therefore not necessary to take the mat from the old steering gear and install on a new steering gear.

      A replacement steering gear comes with the bonded heat shield mat.
