Sorry can't help with workshops in Cumbria, but if you are going to the expense of a new steering rack,I would also be tempted to replce the reservoir. It contains a fine mesh filter that is well known for blocking, this causes the pump to cavitate, damages the pump, which fills the steering rack with metal filings. Goodbye pump & rack. Tangiers Orange - gone, missing her

£764 isn't so bad, you can get a non LR from Eurocarparts one £497 but then you've got to get it fitted, personally I would go with the LR one for piece of mind instead of an unknown refurb.

If you don't mind a bit of a drive try Team Valley Land Rover in Gateshead. Well known here and have a good reputation.

If you have had full LR servicing, contact LR Customer Services, as they may help you. See my post on 'steering knock' due to PS filter clogging, and this is a common problem. I was lucky that LR picked up the whole bill for my 08 reg last week. Was GS TD4 Auto, Privacy, Santorini with Tundra & Alpaca, Cold Climate Pack. Traded for Discovery Sport HSE Auto.
