Julian Posted May 19, 2010 Share Posted May 19, 2010 Need a replacement Steering column, not sure I am keen on repairing. Must have no play. Thanks for any help. It is the column you want, and not the rack, just checking, as I have a column, but haven't got a rack. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big B i200 Posted May 19, 2010 Author Share Posted May 19, 2010 Julian, I believe it is the column as there is play at the steering wheel, like a kind of rattly feel, its been like that for years but the MOT fail sheet said excessive play in steering column, its the same garage I go to with all my cars but they say testers are tightening up. I am going to get a better look at the weekend, I have been given a few options, Mantadoc reckons it is related to nylon inserts which allow the column to collapse if I am reading his comments right in the Tech section. If you are willing to part can you give me first shout if I need it ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big B i200 Posted June 7, 2010 Author Share Posted June 7, 2010 Cheers, but I got a new bearing which should hopefully get fitted today and will fix the problem. Thanks for the offer though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
