Power steering Leaking
Hi All
Ive got a 2005 Accord diesel that's done 96000 miles, the power steering is leaking from the nearside gaiter on the end of the steering rack. The leak is not massive I have to top it up monthly.
What are my options? Can the rack be fixed or does it need replacing? I've seen the leak stop fluid on line does this stuff really work?
Thanks in advance

Are you using genuine fluid? If not you could try replacing it will all genuine stuff, since you have such a slow leak. If the problem is just a seal, using all genuine Honda fluid may stop it over time or at least slow it substantially. Never used a stop-leak P/S product - not so sure about that, especially on any Honda/Acura since they can't even use the same P/S fluid (or ATF) as other makes.
