Power Steering Rack Bolt Leak

NecioVato

Not to revive an old thread but from what I gather from this thread as well as researching it:
1. This seems to be a 'common issue' and it doesn't hurt the car having it leak - just monitor the PS resevior.
2. Don't mess with the bolt where the leak is happening
3. Typically it is a replace the item vs a repair type of situation.

So wondering - does anyone know what is actually leaking and if one was to look to replace it - what would you do/replace? And if anyone has - how difficult would it be to replace out the piece? I do have a leak and been leaking for a few months now - I know its a 'not a huge deal' but hate the fact that it is leaking - so wondering what would it take to replace it etc? As for like difficulty etc if one has most tools and a quick jack?

Thanks in advance - and sorry for reviving this but thought I would ask bc I couldn't find anyone on replacing it and honestly - this group is so savy when it comes to DIY repairs on the Z - figured I would start here.

The same here stared to notice the grease coming out of the bolt for the second time now first time was long ago.
There is nothing about this in FSM on how to fix or tighten it by how much ?
Shouldn’t there be a torque spec for this bolt?

My solution was to wrap it with a few layers of oil absorbent mat.

I think there are several threads on this - but this thread seemed to address some of the concerns; pretty much not a lot one can do with it etc.
