What the Haynes doesn't tell YOU!
Here's a few simple tips to aid with the unpleasant job of changing a steering rack on a PAS equipped BX.
1: Sell the car
2: Burn the car
3: Crash the car and claim on insurance.
Job done.

Re: What the Haynes doesn't tell YOU!
Had fun today mate? Done it once - i hope never fucking again. Did you have to undo a union about 1/100th of a turn per go?

Re: What the Haynes doesn't tell YOU!
Yep!
Arsehole of a job.
Oddly it's one of those jobs that seem to get harder and take longer everytime I fucking do one.
Dads was a piece of piss by comparison, being auto and all, less wank attached to the rack like.
1/1000000 of a turn more like, utter shit bit of design.

Re: What the Haynes doesn't tell YOU!
I remember that well > glad it's not just me! I hated doing that job.....I had to turn the union a tiny bit, remove the spanner, turn it round and turn the union another tiny bit and repeat ad finitum!

Re: What the Haynes doesn't tell YOU!
Yeah, fun aint it!
Especially when your left arm is all but useless, your right arm has been useless for ages, your arse is swollen to fuck and your backs given up.
fucking french shit.
Anyhow, maybe I'll find out if it steers tomorrow, if I can fucking move!

Re: What the Haynes doesn't tell YOU!

... all landings are in fact controlled crashes, and any crash you can walk away from is a good landing. The definition of a good pilot is a man with the same number of landings as take-offs.
