Damage code	Cause	Remedy
46 482 04	O-ring is damaged at the steering line connection.	Replacement of the entire rack-and-pinion steering system is not required.
	In isolated cases leaks can occur on the internal lines at the connections to the control head and/or steering gear housing.	Replace the O-rings of the affected internal steering lines. These O-rings can now be ordered as a separate part. Both of the connections for the line are built into one mounting plate and for this reason both of the lines need to be sealed. To do this: ↓
		1 Remove rack-and-pinion steering.

		Model 203 / / / (except for 203.081 / 084 /281 /284) Model 209.3 /4	AR46.20-P-0600P
		2 Seal the internal lines leading from control head to steering gear housing. Use the O-rings from the repair kit (parts ordering notes).	AR46.20-P-3500P
		3 Install rack-and-pinion steering.
		Model 171	AR46.20-P-0600V
		Model 203.081 /084 /281 /284	AR46.20-P-0600PW
		Model 203 / / / (except for 203.081 / 084 /281 /284) Model 209.3 /4 There are two versions of servo high pressure lines. The old version has a slotted support ring which can be exchanged separately. The new version has a support ring without slots. If the support ring in this version is damaged, the complete servo high pressure line must be replaced (see parts list).	AR46.20-P-0600P
		According to our most recent information, the toe in and toe out of the front wheels no longer have to be set after removing and installing the steering gear.
		Service Information: Omission of the complete chassis alignment after work has been done on the rack-and-pinion steering system.	SI46.20-P-0004A
