Hi there, noticed the other day that the steering column won´t operate vertically- is this a known issue? I can hear the motor working when I move the lever. I read there was a known issue with a white connector- that they break easily. The spanish have these annoying strips of concrete...

Has anyone every had to do any work on the UJ at the bottom of the steering column? Reason I ask is I have a strange "Loose" type feeling when I shake the steering wheel and it can sometime be felt when driving. More annoying than anything. I have had all the suspension components...

Hi, The door controls for the drivers seat and steering column on my C32 have suddenly stopped working. It was all working fine when I left work and when parked up at home I noticed that the steering column didn't raise up when I took the key out, so I turned the ignition back on and the seat...

Can anyone help me out or tell me theirs does the same! Now and again. more so if I am stationary, if I wiggle the steering wheel I can feel a lumpy feel in it and it makes a small lock at the same time. Now I dont think it is suspension related as I never get it goin over bumps. To me it...

Would anyone here be able to explain how to replace the rubber gromett at the base of the steering column that I suspect is letting noise in through the firewall? I had a W210 with a similar problem and the garage replaced a split rubber - I'd like to do the same on my W211 if possible but...

Replaced it yesterday as my right leg was fed up of being cold, when my left leg was nice and warm. It was in 3 pieces :crazy: Took about an hour with the help of my lad to re-align the steering wheel back into the knuckle. Now my leg is nice an warm. BUt the best bit is how quite it is in...

Well as the title says I have had the joyous panic of parking in a hurry as I saw a fairly substantial puff of smoke (comparable to a ciggerette) ease slowly out of the steering column around the indicator stalk area. It seemed to stop as quick as it appeared but certainly got my attention...

My steering column for some reason has stopped adjustment in the upwards direction. I first noticed this because the Easy Entry feature suddenly stopped working yesterday. On attempting to adjust the steering column to ascertain the fault I discovered that the column can moved in and out and...
