Steering rack lubrication
Clean & re-grease steering rack ends.
Our steering rack lubrication package is part of the mechanical line at ev.care — a flat ₹699 for roughly 45 minutes of focused workshop time. Clean & re-grease steering rack ends. We treat this as a workshop job, not a glove-box check — instruments come out, measurements are recorded, and the next technician picking up your vehicle has the data to build on. We don't upsell. If the result is "you're fine, come back in a year", that's exactly what we'll write on the report.
What's included
- Rack-end clean
- Fresh grease application
- Tie-rod boot inspection
Why this matters
Why steering rack lubrication matters: skipping it risks brake or suspension wear compounding into a much larger bill. A ₹699 workshop slot today is the cheapest insurance you can buy against that outcome.
How it works
- 1
Vehicle is lifted; affected assemblies are inspected and photographed.
- 2
Worn parts are quoted before any replacement so you decide.
- 3
Replacement uses OEM or OEM-equivalent parts only.
- 4
Torque values are checked twice and recorded.
- 5
A short road test confirms the fix before handover.

From hundreds of inspections — what makes the report.
