Dodgy Track rod, Pic included

Recommended Posts

Well think this was one of the main causes of my "dodgy steering"

 

These were brand new from VW about 4yrs ago, probaby done about 40,000miles.

 

Found there was no grease used when it was fitted and the rubber boot was all loose, the pipe linking the boots was missing altogether.

Could barely move it by hand, and only in one direction

 

normal one

that's odd, I've just fitted one and they come packed with grease, mind you without sealed protection from the boot I'm not surprised it didn't last many winters, BTW inner boots and joints are new on the MOT this year
