Sedatev8 Posted December 30, 2024 Posted December 30, 2024 Hi all, So a grinding feel and noise turns out to be because the rack boot from the near side has came off and the dirt / salt has made the bearing fail. I've had the car since July and I noticed that someone has been at it before as its the only one with a cable tie instead of the metal boot strap. Has anyone replaced that standard looking bearing? or do I need to replace the rack? Are there any trusted experts in the York area? Its a 2015 with the electronic PAS TIA Lee
Steve Q Posted December 30, 2024 Posted December 30, 2024 Hopefully the bearing can be replaced as a new rack will cost a fortune! Either of these any good: https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/186714100678?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&mkrid=711-127632-2357-0&ssspo=Kkiwt_joQDG&sssrc=4429486&ssuid=IE07kO4STZy&var=&widget_ver=artemis&media=COPY https://www.autodoc.co.uk/car-parts/repair-kit-steering-gear-10702/audi/a5
