Some bits to get you going:

Genuine seals:

Complete rack:

It's looks like refurb with new gaiters and seals is around £50 to £70 or reconditioned rack is £155 with 2 year warranty. If you swap the rack it's probably worth factoring in the cost of getting the tracking done, but at least you know the unit has a warranty for peace of mind.

I just put this in the reservoir http://www.halfords.com/motoring/engine ... leak-125ml - seemed to work OK

dont bother even trying to do a diy recon, the special tools needed to do do a proper job is prohibitive.
ring george at http://www.bongospares.co.uk/. he has a good supply of full recon units, and can fit, but it is an easy job to fit it yourself.

Thanx for all replies.
