Changing steering coloum

[Welshy_Pete]

how's life in Wrexham dude.......wet and miserable like here today?

not sure how to do it but maybe someone could post an exploded view form the parts section from pug uk.

there may be a "plastic bush" bearing at the top of the columb but an exploded view would confirm.

could be the indicator cancel mechanism?? that's making the noise, also there is a "wound hair spring" contactor for the s/wheel air bag in there somewhere and care must be taken when removing the steering wheel.

I'm still a tyro on these cars but scrolling about in similar threads will help you......

Hello the weather changed rain winter on the way.

I have put some grease in to the bearing and the noise has stopped so far. So maybe lucky I got it in time when it just started to dry out.

I could see the old grease so the new grease is doing the job at the moment. But if left longer it would of warn the bearing out for sure.

I see how it goes now for the next few days and weeks then I know if it needs changing or not. But hopefully it be ok now.
