basically, i noticed an oil leak on the ground..but it wasnt black, its more a a dark redish colour.
so i thought it was power steerin fluid. had a look, and it was empty. filled it up,
then after about a 3 weeks or so, it was empty again.
i had a look under the car, and it turned out to be the steering rack which is torn completly.
so i went to my mechanic, and he said you'll prob have to get a new one, cause with a second hand one, the chances are it will happen again.
he said a new once can cost from anything from $180-250. which i think is a bit expensive. (thats not including labour)
am i getting ripped off? and is this a common problem with skylines? also, does it neeed to be replaced, or can it be repaired?
thx.
