Servo leak

[Pete500]

I see an increasing leak from the left side bellow, approx 1 liter per 2500miles. The rack was bought "used and overhauled" from a British company and has only covered some 1500miles after installation. I suppose it's a "rack-out" job to change this seal, or can it be done in situ? What do you recommend?

Rack out,and a total dismantle i am afraid its a common enough PAS rack failure.

It's out. Putting in the old manuel rack for the trip to the Growl. Must say I liked the 2 turns lock to lock instead of 2.75 turns. A little lack of precision straight ahead, but really nice on winding roads and when the rear loose traction!

Stupid question i know but you have removed drive to the PAS pump?

Thanks for the reminder. Will connect pressure line directly to return hose and fill up. Oil will circulate without significant pressure, just like when driving straight ahead.
