KevinC, Sir, thank you for finding the Rack Doctor! My '06, 367,000-mile E90 325i just this week lost the right-side piston seal. This morning I've been looking into the rack replacement cost. And decided to check in on the Z4 Forum... Basically, $700 from FCPEuro or $800 from BMW for ZF-rebuilds, or $189.99 from the Rack Doctor.

Guess who I'm calling on Monday. I may just pull my rack first and send it to them for a rebuild.

Thanks again. You da' Man.
