Yep. Was quoted £675 for the rack, ~£600 for the pump which may or may not be damaged + ~£250 fitting.

Ended up putting a decent after market rack in for significantly less which Volvo said looked good.

Got the following all done at Volvo

- Serviced, plugs, oil etc
- CBV on the turbo inlet replaced
- TMAP sensor on the intercooler replaced
- New coolant
- New brake fluid
- Few bulbs
- New steering rack
- New tie rod ends

Just under a grand all in.

Apparently the vibrations are now gone (see my other thread) and the steering whine is now sorted. 2 birds one stone really.

I'd spent >£1000 at "5 star" garages around here trying to get rid of those steering vibrations, including my local Volvo and they have all been absolutely ******* useless. Replaced wheels, hubs, driveshafts, bushes all at great cost when they were all probably fine

Yet to pick up the car but fingers crossed that's everything sorted on it now.
