Hi guys, I am replacing the EPS torque sensor soon and just need to figure out what kind of grease to use on the O-ring (B) and needle bearing (C ). Should this be high temp urea, white lithium or some kind of moly grease? (Sorry, I know I'm mixing up the thickeners and additives here, but I'm pretty lost)

 

From the service manual procedures.....

3. Coat the new O-ring (B) with multipurpose grease, and carefully fit it on the torque sensor housing.

4. Apply multipurpose grease to the needle bearing (C) in the gearbox housing.

 

Thanks. I actually have the Factory Service Manual and referenced it for the instructions. I'm just not sure if there is a specific type of "multipurpose" grease that should be used.

 

Take your pick, I like lithium grease, in a paste, not a spray, use gloves. Get something that repels water and doesn't run.

 

Ok. Thank you!
