02' TL TypeS; I just had the Tranny rebuilt (factory defect killed trans) 2 weeks later - took car back for check up - passed - but power steering fluid low - they topped off said I was good to go. 1 week later, took to Acura for Front Motor Mount replacement - My Rack just went on me - no power steering - put fluid in to get to shop 1/10 mile from work (didnt want to damage pump) I am the 3rd person who has had a problem with Power Steering after having tranny done (different places for each of us, different cars.) ??? would tranny place or acura have had to take rack down or disconnect anything when replacing tranny or motor mount???? Desperate for Help as I am frustrated with the money this car is now cost me.[img:0f08ea58d0]http://www.2carpros.com/forum/automotive_pictures/195420_7212007011_1.jpg[/img:0f08ea58d0]

Hi sophial,

Some PS hoses have to be removed to enable the job to be done depending on how they did the job..
