Seal quality looked ok to me - even the audi seal kits (which were zf) had problems with the lip seal.

I currently overhauling my s2 non servotronic rack, struggling to loose end cap (No. 25). Can see some of the threads and it looks like there are common threads not counterclockwise thread. Is it possible to get the cap new if it gets damaged? Anyone how got som good tips to loosen it? have tried heat, penetrating rust solver and pliers to get enough torque. Struggling!

Nice thread and lot of good info there. Thanks fór that. Does anyone have OEM seal kit for sale? There isnt anything to find here. Mine steering rack looks like that doesnt leak, but rather have some seal kit on hand.

thanks to Ansta who linked this to me. i have one question about the process as a result of a failed attempt in the past on a different rack. do you need to align the spindle to a certain point on the rack upon reassembly?
i ask because i think this is how i screwed up a mk3 golf rack. as soon as i turned the car on, it turned itself hard left, i wonder if i just got the spindle in wrong. i'd like to avoid that scenario this time!
