power steering rack
« on: 23 January 2013, 18:03 »
Im lookin a steering rack, will a standard mk3 one fit? Was quoted £400 for one but im just gonna get one from the scrapyard. My mechanic managed to bodge it for me quite well but i dont know how long it will hold up.

Reference the steering rack, I believe a few different makes were used, so you will need to know what you have fitted at the moment.

Right so heres an update. Power steering rack is gone, dealers looking over £900. Dont have a clue which one i have fitted, dealer wont give me a part number.

Anyone recomend one on the internet for me? Its a 1998 golf vr6.

If yours is a 98 then most likely it will be the trw rack. Is stealers wont help you ring tps as they will help you if not then give me a pm with your reg and il find out for you.
There were 2 racks fitted to the mk3 gti and i know they are zf and trw but im not sure if vr is different. Pm me if you still need help :wink:
