Hi,

I've got a 2001 Jetta VR6 with a beat steering rack - fluid gushing out of both of the boots.

Any idea on how difficult this is to replace? From what I can tell in the older Jettas, it was pretty straightforward - pop the ball joints, unbolt the steering shaft, pull a couple of U-clamps that hold it in place and manuver it out. No idea if the process is considerably more complicated on the newer Jettas or not...

Thanks,
-Mike
