Hi, does anyone have a guide or thread for replacing the steering rack on an S3?

I have now removed the reservior and checked that there were no blockages and that it is all flowing smoothly

Does anyone know if the reservoir has a filter built in that I could check?

No leaks visable anywhere on the whole system and havent lost any fluid out of the resivoir, removed the pump again this weekend and it was all nice and free to turn so I put it back on and bled the system but the noise is still there and as bad as ever! I also removed the pipe linking the...
