Sometimes it takes quite a few miles to get all the air out of the system, but get the level good with no foam first in your driveway.

Some vehicles require that you drop the rack down for clearance to get the bolts out to replace those O-rings, and I can't remember if your 420 has enough clearance to do it.

I would get the O-rings from the dealership since they are familiar with the problem.
I'm aware this post is over 5 years old but its worth a shot. The EPC list 4 o-rings that are associated with the steering knuckle. I assume 2 for each side? The leak, I think, is coming from the driver's side because I've already replaced the shaft seal in pump. What are the tightening torque values? Yours or anyone else's valuable response is greatly appreciated.
