Technical question: If the center seal on the rack piston (between 2 fluid chambers) was distored/slight hole/etc. and allowed fluid to bypass, would this cause a "wandering" sensation while driving? Everything else has been eliminated- alignment, tires, tie rods, rack play, etc.
I'm wondering what inside the rack failing/malfunctioning would cause this. The steering ALSO does not "self center" after doing steering wheel movements. Been this way since new. |

Since the racks are sort of new to the MB world maybe some of our other subscribers can help with this that have other makes.

The 140 S-class has a steering box. Which "rack piston" are you referring to?

The Mercedes model I was posting about is a 1997 E420 (210 chassis) with power rack & pinion steering. Please see my original posting. Thanks!
