I had a similar experience recently, although not as serious. PJ Grady
replaced the steering rack for me about two years ago, but recently the
'play' in the steering returned. He redid the shims (N/C) when I had the
car in for service and now the steering is tight again.

I use my car as a daily driver, and I have started to post my service
records on my website ( http://members.home.com/rsrodgers/DMCpage.htm )
