My Steering Fluid on an 02 Reg KA Luxury 1.3 is leaking. I have been to the garage who just added more fluid, its leaked even more now and the noise is so loud, more so when i turn the wheel. What needs to be done to stop this? Just keep filling up the Steering Fluid? Or new Steering rack? I want to buy the part and take to garage to make this cheaper, but not sure what im buying.

this is not a picture of your vehicle .. because i do not have a pic of it... but the basic setup is the same ... these are the parts .. there is also pipes connecting these parts together .. you really need to find out where the leak actually is before buying parts ..ask the mechanic to identify the part you need ... then source the part yourself .. i think you will find the mechanic can get it cheaper.. unless you are going to use recycled
