Replacing PAS Rack In 2006 D3 4.2 TDI
Hi ladies and gents!
I've got a 2006 D3 4.2 TDI, with a steering issue. When turning left, it's normal. Try turning left, and it only goes half way, giving a real nasty turning circle. The vane pump also whines a lot at this point, it whines too at idle, with the wheels in the straight ahead position. I think the rack may be bent (the car was front damaged). I am removing the rack from my 2005 4.2 gasser which is perfect. My questions are thus: Is the petrol 4.2 V8 rack compatible with the 4.2 TDI? Can the rack physically be removed from the car, with the engine and tranny in situ? From what I can see, the rack is held in place with 2 bolts from underneath the scuttle area. I've got the front end up on jack stands, but I can't see the bolts. Any help appreciated.
