Audi A6 C5 Steering Rack Replacement

The steering rack transfers steering-wheel input to the front steering linkage, allowing the driver to control the direction of the vehicle.

A worn or damaged steering rack may contribute to symptoms such as:

• Excessive steering play
• Loose or imprecise steering
• Uneven steering response
• Unusual steering noises
• Hydraulic power-steering fluid leakage
• Steering that does not return or operate normally

A proper inspection should be performed before replacement because steering symptoms can also originate from tie rods, steering joints, hydraulic hoses, power-steering pumps, or other suspension and steering components.
