[QUOTE="NKTOB, post: 153122, member: 2762"] coming back to the title of the thread.... e36 steering rack can be refurbished...unfortunately for e46 no way! when to M Speed to diagnose the sound from the steering rack.. 1. not the u joint coupling - no replacement stock currently 2. not the tie rod joint 3. not the link rod 4. not the engine mounting knocking on the steering rack.. finally, it's 95% the sound and vibration is from the interior, coming right thru the steering column.. yup, it's the steering column ( a straight rod that connects the steering & the coupling ), apparently another wear & tear issues.. a refurbished unit cost approx RM600++, no price quoted for a new set.
