XC90 Steering Rack Leak

[DARINB]

My XC90 is leaking power steering fluid from the steering rack right around where one of the small metal hoses screws into the rack itself. Is this an O-Ring that can be replaced or is the whole rack going to have to be replaced? (I have run 2 bottles of lucas stop-leak through the system) Any advice is appreciated.

take it off and see if there are any o-rings inside,if yes get them replaced if no then end of the hose/pipe has a like a bubble flare, make sure it seats all the way inside and tight it up.
i wouldt use lucas stop-leak in this vehicle, or any other european.

Hi, I have the same problem :-( Did you find out if it is possible to repair the steering rack or is the only solution to replace it?

Did the lucas stop-leak help?
