I have a 2007 120bhp multijet doblo that has passed its mot today with 60k on the clock,it leaks a small amount of power steering fluid out of the rack,it is an advisory on the mot sheet about this .the leak has been there for 2 years and is very small,can they fail it the next mot if i dont replace the rack ?
 
Its more likely that the leak is from one of the connectors to the rack than the rack itself so it might not be too bad a job to fix. An advisory is just that, advice, what happens next year depends on the state of the leak, they could issue another advisory or if dangerous they could fail it.

If it was me I think I would get it fixed as loss of steering assistance can make you run wide as I found out when my car started stalling the other day (rpm sensor failed) and I was lucky there were no other cars about.
