Bump. I was just looking for info, and found this thread.
If anyone finds this in the future, FYI, Servotronic is a cross-brand name for speed-sensitive power steering (i.e. lighter when parking, weightier at speed). In the case of the P3s, the inner track rods are different. One type is ~28cm long, and the other is ~30cm long. The shorter type fit cars with Servotronic steering. The one thing I haven't worked out yet is how you tell whether or not your car has Servotronic steering. I suspect it's in the VIN, and you can probably see some gubbins on the rack itself, but I wasn't planning on getting mucky today! cheers James

I'm doing a refresh on the front of my p3, I noticed on autodoc the inners had different length. Looks like a case of hoik the old one off and measure. Another week off the road while I wait for parts.
I refuse to use eurocarfarts. |

Maybe I've never spotted the right location, but I've struggled to get that sort of detail out of VIDA. You often get a list of variants of parts, and little assistance with which applies to your car.
Is there a spec page somewhere in VIDA which I've missed? The design of the joint of the 'drumstick' is different - smooth / round on normal PAS cars, and angular / hexagon (or maybe octagon?)-shaped for Servotronic cars. cheers James

Question...
If you put your hand on the outer track rod ends (whilst they're still attached to the spindle), should you be able to move them by hand left and right in a twisting motion, or should they be solid and not move at all?
