Sticky steering rack 200

posted by  someone claiming to be JDreher on  Thu Jul 11 04:26 CST 2002 [RELATED]

When my 242Ti became a second car, I didn't drive it as much, and now the steering action is not smooth anymore. There are a few spots to the left and right where increased resistance is felt while turning lock to lock. The steering becomes smoother after I drive it awhile. I'm thinking about pushing the steering boots back and cleaning the shaft, and then lubricating it. Any suggestions on how to clean it and then what type of lubricant?
Thanks, John
