Steering rack grease?

[chris719]

I have BMW Schmierfett FB-1 grease, but it seems like this is for the boot not necessarily for the rack ends / teeth. Is this ok to use on the rack itself? I cleaned the old grease off and used this, but unsure if that was a bad idea, TIS is unclear. The BMW FB-1 doesn't say what it is but the back of the label mentions it has moly trioxide. Thanks!

There is almost zero load on the rack teeth during steering with engine running, but max load during turning with engine off. The supplied grease is for the ball joints at the rack ends and can be used on the rack teeth. The boot needs no grease.
