    T5 08 2.5 TDI Losing steering fluid and damaged steering boot/gaiter

    HiI have a T5 08 2.5 TDI 4motion with 158000 KMI noticed that the steering was making quite a bit of noise suddenly.No lights on the dashboard.I checked the steering reservoir and was 1/3 full so I got some Penrite LHM Plus and filled it up.A week or so later it started to make the same noise so I looked around and I found that the steering boot is damaged.Do you guys know if the leak is just from the boot or is there more to it than that?PC

    Seal failure in the rack. It'll need to be rebuilt.
