WOBBLY ML300 STEERING WHEEL AFTER CHANGING MY STEERING RACK

Hi members,
I recently changed the steering rack of my ML300 4MATCI CDI 2011 which has done about 65000 miles. I have noticed that it appears wobbly when driving in that the handling is weird. It almost feels like the steering wheel is too loose. Has anyone else experienced this or what could be the problem?

Any warranty on the rack or labour to swap the rack. Sounds like either a bad quality rack or the workmanship on the swap is bad.
