I'd love to read the article but I can never find any issues of Excellence in Zurich... I only buy them when at the airports in NA

What's the deal with the $5k power steering repair quoted in the article? I'm at work and don't have it handy to reference.

Uh, yeah. It can be done for less than $400 DIY. Easy job.
