OK,guys.
Last weekend I replaced the seals on the drop arm steering box of my mates 300tdi.
An interesting job,to say the least.
Anyhoooow.
I was reversing it into the garage yesterday to change the cam belt.& the steering box seal blew out.I had somehow pushed the C clip & the seal out,so,dropped all the fluid.Hey ho.
Pulled it appart,I thought perhaps I hadn't seated the C clip properly.
So,rebuilt it,making sure the C clip was properly seated....Guess what?The bugger has done it again.
So,my question is,do any of you clever people have any idea why it may have done this????
I'm stumped.
Thanks a lot
Marc
