Hi, my 850 -94 with 225kkm has been leaking a bit at pinion for some time.
I finally decided to renew the pinion upper gasket (30 Euros) to make it to end. It was quite a job to remove and install but Bay13/power_steering.pdf was good help in doing this. So I have got all back again and not yet leaking.
Full steering gear renewal would have costed around 1000 Euros.

I remember reading somewhere that one should renew all bolts and nuts used for fixing the subframe again - is this really necessary? or at the end of tie rod?

I also flushed the transmission and went over to mobil atf shc with Magnefine in line filter (from mobil atf 220)after about 50k miles and must say the old oil looked really bad even not experiencing any malbehavior of the tranny yet.
