power steering rack
 

my mechanic told me today that my power steering rack is leaking. he suggested using a stop-leak additive, but i've always been highly against additives of any kind. has anyone replaced their steering rack on their b5? is that a big expensive job? tia guys.

A new steering rack is ~1000 bucks in parts and 500 in labor.
