03 TL s type 107 kms needed to replace Steering Rack$

Hey, just looking for some advise, Just replaced the entire Steering rack on my 03 TL s Type. Mileage is 107000 and I was told my warranty no longer covers it. DId i buy a lemon here? Is this a common problem? I bought it used 14 months ago and the mileage is mostly highway.

Can anybody help to explain this? Do I have a case to attempt another shot at claiming warranty?

Not a lemon. some times things fail. The PS rack isnt something that usually fails. id say you dont have a case. sorry.

Kris, did you ever change the power steering fluid on your TL?
Do we need to change the fluid to prolong the steering pump and rack and pinion?
