Yes, it is expensive. On the order of $1,000 as I remember. > I have ’95 850 turbo wagon, has anybody heard of steering > problems,like rack and pinion?

My '95 854T needed a new rack at 110,000 km. No reason given -- our roads are well-surfaced and the car has been driven moderately since new. IIRC, it cost ~ $900CAN for a rebuilt rack, installed. No problem with the struts. Java >> I have 95 850 turbo wagon, has anybody heard of steering problems,like >> rack and pinion?

I shopped around and got it replaced with a rebuilt rack for about US$700. The dealer wanted about US$1200. John
