Since it has been 2 months since my last problem with my 96 Eagle Vision TSI, I should have known that I was due for a new one :-)
Today when I tried to steer to the left it was very hard. I had to put both hands on the steering wheel and almost drag it to make even a small left turn.
Yet I had no problem turning right (that at lease should make the Republicans happy!).
I got the car to a repair shop where I was told that the rack & pinion has broken down (I get a more detailed report tomorrow).
My question(s) as follows are:
1 In this "normal" for a 9 year old car with 62000 miles?2: How much am I looking at to fix it?
3: Can I put it off (and yes I know the danger of not being able to go where one wants to) for a while? And if so am I looking at more damage (money spent) down the line?
