About this product

When steering column performance matters, the TRW JCR149 delivers — built to the same dimensional and material standards as the original part it replaces. The part is built to the following specification: Operating Mode: Electric, Left-/right-hand drive vehicles: Steel, Vehicle Equipment: 261, Alternative Repair Kit: JCR435. Each dimension is checked against the OEM reference to ensure the component seats and functions correctly first time. This part supersedes original equipment references: 852016704, DSC0025L. Matching these numbers confirms a like-for-like replacement with no loss of function. TRW is a recognised supplier of automotive replacement components to independent workshops and dealer networks across Europe. All parts are sourced from authorised distribution channels and carry full manufacturer traceability — you receive exactly the same component supplied to professional garages and dealer workshops. If fitment or specifications do not match your vehicle, our technical team can help identify the correct alternative — use the vehicle selector or contact us with your VIN for a guaranteed-fit recommendation. Replacing worn components on schedule preserves your vehicle's safety, reliability, and resale value — and aftermarket parts from established brands deliver OEM-equivalent performance at a fraction of the dealer price. Every part is dispatched from our UK warehouse with a 30-day money-back guarantee and free hassle-free returns.

Steering Column buying guide

Why replace this part?

The steering column connects the steering wheel to the rack through an intermediate shaft and universal joints. Worn column joints cause clunking, notchy steering feel, and imprecise response when turning, particularly at low speed.

Signs you need a replacement

  • Clunking or knocking when turning the steering wheel at low speed
  • notchy or rough steering feel
  • play in the steering wheel
  • vibration felt through the wheel
  • steering wheel tilting unintentionally

When to replace

No fixed interval — inspect universal joints for play. Replace when wear is detected.

Installation difficulty:Professional — we recommend workshop fitting
