sure you havent moved the locking lever?
under the cowling in a hole there is a lever to lock up and down movement

here is a pic of the cowl upside down , in the hole in the top left of the pic is the locking lever
can need a good push/tug to operate

If not, on the back of the locking mechanism is a nut (13mm iirc) which you can adjust to tighten up how hard the lever clamps the column in place.

Take the coweling off and have a look. Do they have bearings or anything of the like? I will look on the estate tomorrow

There are 4 nuts which hold the rack on make sure they are tight. Take the cowling and fuse cover off too see them
