    Ah... wonder if that could be my mystery sound, more like a whoosh than a hiss at the mo though, quite quiet and cant work out what it is, most noticable ticking over at standstill, will check if turning the steering afects it.

    How much was it to recon the rack?

    Also, thinking about it, my steering has started to wander a bit, thought it was top mounts again but....

      £275 + VAT to have the rack overhauled.
      It's not in the easiest place to get to, so find a cheap mechanic with small hands.
      I hope it's something cheaper on yours - like a vacuum leak from one of the hoses at the very back of the engine round and under the throttle body.
      Have a listen in your drivers footwell - that's where mine was loudest from inside the car - where the steering link goes through to the engine bay.
      Best of luck,
      Ck.
      Shocked, exhausted, hosed, bushed, dumped, chipped, mounted, filtered, gauged, packed, intermittantly wiped and braked. I mean broken. Now, about the car...
