Hoping both of our problems are easy to fix
On the D2 (I wouldn't think the D3 is massively different), if the rack seals have gone, it'll come out from both sides, depending on which way you're applying steering lock, you'll see it gushing out the rubber sleeve thingies.

If a pipe has come loose, filling it up with fluid won't reattach the pipe!
