  • steering rack leaking?!

    So I took the 6 for its normal routine oil change, and while there the maintenance Guy asked if I wanted a complimentary multi point inspection. Naturally of course I said sure. So they did the oil, did the inspec., came back told me fliuds need to be changed (knew that) and steering racks leaking. Hands me my keys and walks away. And I'm standing there like WTF?!

    Now, my question is. Has anyone had a problem with this? My 6 is an 07 and I've only had it going on three years in September. Suggestions, tips, and/or general cost of fixing something like this would seriously help a lot.

    Thanks in advanced.

    Re: steering rack leaking?!

    A steering rack is a common thing to leak on most vehicles. I would suggest getting a better idea of how much it is leaking. If it is leaking to a drip the only remedy is to replace the rack. They aren't terribly expensive to replace, but they could be difficult if you didn't have a rack to lift it. Obviously it will need an alignment afterward.
