HELP: steering rack
Guys, I need your advice or some info.
Looks like I need a new steering rack. After about 40min of driving or 20-30min in standstill traffic (when engine is up to it's full temp so the suspension/steering because of all that heat) you can hear really annoying squeaking noise just in the corners , bottom of the windscreen. Not so noticeable when driving 50mph+. Other than that, almost every little bump, even in a standstill when turning the wheels, or when driving veeeery slowly on uneven road. Are they repairable without full recon?? (take out, change worn out/squeaky ends, put it back) How much does the new one costs?? Is it worth buying a low mileage one (will need to really be assured its a low milage)?? Does it really takes 4-5 hours to change it?? How about reconditioning?? It still costs around 300 but not having a car for a week is something I don't like at all What guys do you know about this issue on D3s?? Any info grately appreciated as always
