GL320CDI RHD Steering Problem
I have a 2007 GL320 CDI with 155000kms. When making a sharp left hand turn followed by a sharp right hand turn at low speeds (usually in a parking lot) the steering will sometimes "bind" and be very hard to turn. I have replaced my steering rack bushes, which were badly worn, but this has not fixed the issue. The rest of the steering components have been checked and appear to be ok. I am now at a loss as to what to do.

Yes problem fixed. I found an issue with the Tie Rod ends at the power steering rack.The old ones appeared ok whilst on the vehicle, but once removed the problem was evident New ones were about $45AU each.
