Having like Heinz experienced intermittent clicking from the steering, the rack adjuster suddenly became worthy of investigation.
On releasing the 1 1/2" AF hex nut, star washer and unscrewing the threaded adjuster, the ID of the adjuster cylinder was measured at 20.0mm whereas the OD of the nylon follower was measured at 20.3mm!
I used a sharp chisel with the follower mounted in the bench drill to remove the excess nylon.
All reassembled with a dash of gearbox oil, a smear of grease and preloaded to fully tight minus a quarter turn of the adjuster.
No more clicking noises and no play at the steering wheel.
