So my power steering rack has a crack in and leaks fluid - not a huge deal - the power steering fluid as now totally leaked out and I've lost my power steering. Is there any quick fixes to get the steering to work again, has anyone had this happen to them? I have already refilled the fluid and it hasn't made a difference.
yeah, change the rack.
so you reckon theres nothing I can do except change the rack hey, cause thats not cheap.
yeah, change the rack.

penrite > honda
honda is beter then penrite cause jdm
Honda oil is just Caltex relabled :P
castol recomend iso15 bike fork oil for honda p/s.
but dont be a jerk just spend the 15 dollers on honda fluid, you do get 1L so its as cheap as standard castrol ps fluid
edit: its not just relabled caltex....the bottles diffrent too, get ur fax n8
honda > penrite
I'd only use honduh oils personally
had rack seals shit on me before in EG5 wen i use non honda oil
But glad I don't own honduh anymaw
can get fluids from anywhere
toyota nat welcome hear m8
take your bat and ball away
fak u m8
oh btw op
u might wana replace seals on PS pump too
if u drove it without PS
means your pump was going without any fluids
no gud m8
Das k
Get cheap pumps
nah if hole in rack just use sikaflex n8.
dun worry my rack sccrapes cause to much lows too
so I had a closer look and have found that my rack is fine - the pulley belt has fallen off... So I just gotta replace that, although the fluid is leaking a bit faster now than it has since a couple of years ago when the crack was found..
damn hate when belts just fall off for no reason and cracks the rack....
alright smart ass don't be that guy - the rack had an existing crack in it and still worked fine - then it stopped and I found the belt off the pulley. Capiche?Quote:

exactly... racks dont just crack and belts dont just fall off
dunno how the crack got there it was there when the car was given to me by my parents... and I'm assuming the belt went slack somehow..
