For sometime now, I've been noticing that my power steering fluid needed topping up fairly regularly. I pointed it out to my garage and they said "no leak"....twice. Eventually I noticed some spillage on the ground, roughly behind the first 2 digits of the registration plate.
With the new information, the garage finally found the leak and informed me that it was a main dealer part only and would take around 3 hours to fit. As my garage (and me) are in France, sometimes things can be lost in translation, but he said he would get me a price for the part, but it would be expensive. That was several weeks ago and despite 3 emails, he's failed to come back to me with a price for the part, which is out of character, as he's usually pretty good. He knows that I'm on a tight budget and I'm beginning to suspect that the reason he hasn't got back to me, is that this is going to be bad news.
Has anyone had experience of replacing power steering, or could anyone give me an idea of price. ? My van is a 2007 1.6hdi Berlingo.
