    e36 m3 steering rack issue

    So i installed an e36 m3 steering rack in my e30 s52 and when I drive the car its almost as if there is zero resistance when i turn. It feels way too easy to turn the wheel and it makes for a very difficult ride. And my power steering fluid in the resevior is like a silver metallic kind of look. This is after i just replaced all the fluid. Any suggestions on what could be causing these problems?

        Do you already not have power steering or still have it right now?

          I still have it right now. i just swapped out the OEM e30 rack for an e36 rack with its hoses to match the s52.
