Subject:      Power Steering Line Leak
Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1"

Well my mechanic just called and said it's not my rack but probably the
metal power steering lines leaking.  First time he's ever seen them fail.
Quoted me a price of about $150 for each (from VW dealer) and said it would
make sense to replace them both when the fuel tank is off.  Can one get
these lines elsewhere cheaper?  What about used?  He's waiting for me to
call him back.  Any help welcomed.
