Ive just noticed the gaiter on my steering rack has split and ive got my MOT coming up... would it fail on this?

Has anyone ever replaced one of these before on a mk3?

I think it should do. but you should change it asap unless you want to wear the rack out quick

remove rod end, and undo the clips & then the gaiter.

removing the rod end will be the hard bit!
