Abstract
A steering system for a passenger motor vehicle has a lower steering spindle. A rubber-elastic damping block is provided as a damping device, and one or more guide members which project freely along the spindle axis is assigned to each respective spindle part. The guide members of the opposite spindle parts are axially slidably in opposite directions disposed in corresponding guide receiving devices of the damping block. The axial displaceability of the guide members is limited within the guide receiving devices by axial securing devices assigned to each spindle part.
