On my 2000 156 1.8 Sportswagon my hydraulic tank leaked heavily so I
took it to service. After fixing the leak the guy told me that also
the steering assembly leaked and had to be replaced.
He said it was a common problem w. that model and year. Is this just
an excuse to let me bleed a quite awesome sum or is he onto something
here?

I can't recall many people reporting the same issue, but I could be
losing my memory, again.

machine,it's the second best I've driven

Bah..a technicality!
> Want to guess again?
Nah..I'm way out of my experience zone. The only time I was in a
Sprint (a long time ago) I wasn't fit to stand (and neither was the
driver!). I don't recall ever seeing a 116 let alone knowing how it
drives. Go on..do tell.. I hope it's not as obvious as the 116..

No, seriously. It's *very* different IMHO.

Nope. The Sprint. It's truly lovely to drive. Engine just keeps pulling
and pulling, and the control is just sublime.
116 is OK, but requires rather more persuasion, particularly with that
heavy lump at the front.

I had the same problem, a pinhole in the hydraulic pipe was allowing fluid
to escape on my '99 156 2.0L, wasn't too expensive. My colleague had the
same problem on his 2001 156. It must be common for the age.
