It's to do with the reports from some owners about the steering suddenly going very heavy I believe. I've never suffered the problem even though mine is one of the first on the UK roads

Hmmm, if I remember, which I probably wont, I'll ask the dealer when I collect

Yeah, 'cos like their gonna know!
RE: Uprated steering rack? - RacingSnake - 31-03-2012 05:08pm
Indeed, and to be honest when I turn up to collect it, I'm not really going to care either

Someone I know on the evoqueownersclub.co.ukj site got his car the same day as mine, both being manufactured on 24 February, and both nearly identical. His has had the problem (just fixed) and I've had no bother at all. So, it sounds more random and not related to age.
He also tells me that LR said that Evoques don't actually have a steering rack as such. In his case, they changed a sub-frame, so presumably it was a steering geometry problem of some sort.

I've got a tube here, probably more than I'll ever need so could send you some if you want. PM if interested.
