Re: Power Steering Leak
mine was leaking too, in matters of seconds the entire tank would be empty, brought it into the dealer and they had to replace my steering rack, it was cracked or something

Re: Power Steering Leak
Hi
My rack is also leaking. I had it to the mechanic for another reason and he noticed the leak. He said it is the rack and a new one would cost 500 - 800 dollars. I am wondering how he knew it was the rack, and not a hose or something else? He showed me the leak while the car was up on the hoist and it was dripping from just under the drivers side . He said it would only leak while the car was running, as that is when the fluid is pressurized and circulating. any thoughts on how I can troubleshoot this? What about the price? Maybe It is just a hose and would be much cheaper to fix? Thanks |

Re: Power Steering Leak
Same thing happened to me last month. I was getting quotes for $1600 - $2000 but I finally got it done for $1100. Shop around.
