You are right! But before the procedures, I took the car at least two times to the dealer and in the report they just made "torque adjustments" and reported that the steering column had no problems... After the adjustments clicking sound from the upper clamp stopped for a couple of days, but...
Hi! New developments!
After my tightening procedure, the clicking sound was gone, and very slowly came back as I noticed the that the tightening clamp of the steering wheel was losing strength... The procedure of the user Joebar was an idea... an so there I was again! I bought these nuts and...
Has I said before I think that the steering column is ok and the replacement procedure or new washers or screws or torque used on it, is what solves the problem. In my search everywhere over the internet, never found information about the part itself of steering column or any wrong specification...
Hi my friend! Sadly the clicking has not disappeared completely, but has reduced a great deal and is not so frequent has before, and the sound that it makes is not so loud or easily noticed by my hands on the steering wheel.
Now only in few occasions, mostly when changing direction in...
After these two procedures, it only remains to tighten the bolt under the scuttle panel, see picture... Some info I read was in this forum, in this old thread An update on the increasing play on my loose steering column :)
Maybe we need the three procedures all together, and perhaps someone with...
Hi! Answering to your question, before increased the torque on the steering column clamp bolt (first image), before I had made the procedure (second image), after that both procedures until now no clicking. One thing that i have noticed, after increased the torque on the steering column clamp...
I suppose that the steering replacement it's not necessary because there is no explanation if there is any difference between the old and the new steering column. All the users that report this clicking problem do not report any mechanical wear or structural weakness on the steering column...
Hi guys! There may be a chance that that solution does not solve the problem... like in my case that solved temporarily .... but after some time the click sound returned but not so frequent. But the noise ends for some time after I regulate the steering wheel height, but after some time...
Hello my friend all the credits go to the member HSI that I thanked in this thread... I just posted some more promenorized information about the process...
Hello! I moved the piece all the way that permitted... I think that the piece is shaped in U so for that it can´t go any further, if you look closely the U opening is on the direction of the arrows, if so, there is no way that it can reach the metal edge on the side.... Regards
Hi! You only have to remove the plastic cover highlighted in the picture, but before, you have to lower the steering wheel the maximum you can, the plastic cover has no screws but it will stay stick to the car with a part made of synthetic leather. You can put the plastic cover over the...
The photos are the same as shown on my reply post, but the one I have attached now shows in green the specific parts that have to be moved in the direction of the red arrows after slight unscrew both bolts. Then screwed back both bolts and thats it! Used the tool on the second fhoto the angle...
