Hey guys. the other day while i was turning out of my driveway i pulled the steering wheel all the way to the point it stops from turning. I then heard this grinding sound and a loud pop. Since then the car has no ability to steer left or right whatsover. I was thinking maybe this was caused by the rims, but i have never had this problem before, and my rims are enkeis, so they are not that terribly heavy. I looked at the tie rods but i dont see them physically broken. Anyone who has been through this please help me asap. I need my car on a daily basis for school and work.

probably blew a seal in the steering rack, my guess is ull have to replace the whole rack

edit: did u check for fluid under the car when it happened?

nah man i didnt lose any fluid. I'm just hoping it is the cheapest problem possible. I have a bad habit of turning the wheel to the point of it stopping itself really hard at the limit of its travel. Has anyone here had this happen before?
