Steering rack OEM Subaru or OEM Volkswagen

Had to replace the power steering rack (OEM) from an outside Subaru specialty repair shop for $1100. OEM rack, fluid $640, labor & alignment $480.

I had the steering rack in my 2016 STI replaced at an independent Subaru shop and it was $730 for an OEM rack and $525 in labor not including a power steering flush and alignment.

The steering rack leak soon turned to a steering rack flood. The seals were basically plastic and blew out. The replacement has been excellent.

My rack came furnished with new tie rod inner and outer ends(Affects steering accuracy and tigheness) and boots installed, OEM, ready to go.

Dealership replaced electronic steering rack under warranty and issue fixed.

I just got mine replaced like two weeks ago and no problems since then. Mine was bad from the very beginning literally l noticed it few days after I purchased my brand new 2019 Atlas.

As for the r32 rack, definitely quickens the steering. The swap really isn't very hard if you are already dropping the subframe for whatever reason.

My VDub has been good and bad. Lots of expensive components I had to replace. Steering rack

The steering rack was replaced earlier this year when it started to lock randomly.

Got my steering rack replaced two months ago and taking my car back to the dealer on Monday due to the same noise issue that started to happen week after repair.
