power steering rack epic mot fail! 88 240DL
Hi all as the title suggests they could not pass bertha with this issue..on the up side no welding this year..I have to try and source a recon or a pretty sound second hand one..I had a look online and there seems to be a few different ones ref number wise..is this true or are they pretty standard through the range..ie 1988 through to 93..I have ten days to sort this out and the clock is ticking!..Thanks..Regards.hj.

Sorry to hear this. I bet it's the original rack.
I would ring FRF Volvo and ask Simon about the price of a new/refurbished rack. He would probably be able to give you the part number and say which years the same rack is fitted. James. |

Thanks James..the company my garage wants to use is a six day turn around and not cheap..I feel pretty helpless on this issue as the rack (apparently) is not serviceable?..I bet the cubans could sort it!..I appreciate your reply James and i might ring your man..A half daycent rack would get me out of the woods..Regards HJ.
