For 2008 Toyota Camry XLE V6 a dealer wants to:
Replace power steering rack (leaking at boot), perform power steering fluid exchange and alignment afterward = $1150.00.
I need a second option to make sure the leak is not from somewhere else and or to determine it has to be replaced at this high price.

I am adding fluid every two weeks. Upon disassembling the pump there is nothing obvious leaking.

For 2006 Toyota Camry XLE V6 a dealer wants to:
Replace power steering high pressure line (leaking) = $849.72
Replace power steering rack (leaking at boot), perform power steering fluid exchange and alignment afterward = $1309.71 (open estimate on power steering pump).
I need to shop around for better price.
It is disappointing that Toyota is not reliable when it comes to power steering parts.

Power Steering Pressure Hose leaking and then replaced, but still leaking, then replaced clamp. Now having problems with noise when steering. I'm being told may have to replace pump or rack and pinion down the road because leak may have done damage. Not happy with this at this mileage, and not very happy with my mechanic, either, because after it was "fixed" for $425 by replacing power steering pressure hose, it was STILL leaking, which is probably when the damage happened, as before it was "fixed" never had any actual problems with the steering - no noise, nothing.

leaking power steering pump. I haven't had it fixed yet, just been adding p/s fluid. I came to this site to see how much it would cost.
