[QUOTE="jsng, post: 640459, member: 21447"] Power Steering Fluid leaking :-( from the top of the steering rack ... So what the workshop did is to take out the power rack and inspect the condition of the power steering and at the same time replace those old seal and "rubber"s .. quite a number of them. The main issue is with the condition of some inner component (not sure whether i had managed to identify it correctly): - Pinion Input Shaft - Power Cyclinder It shows some wear off sign, so they are worried that it might still leak after those seal replacement but this is the cheapest solution for now .. else i might need to replace it with a reconditioned steering rack which will be much more expensive. Hope this will help to stop the leak .. BTW, any of u guys experience the power steering rack leak before? [/QUOTE]
