Steering wheel sticking when i poot my foot down....

Post by helios1 »

Think theres something wrong with my steering, as everytime i put my foot down while turning a corner, the steering gets all sticky. Never noticed this happening before. Just wondering if anyone has ever noticed something similar? and how they fixed it?

Thanks

yeah i had it last week, weird that!
mine was just like something was fouling the steering colome.

if you bob down in the foot well just above the pedals there is like a plastic cover over it just undo that with two dodgy screws and also take your glove box out you can see or feel if it's fouling there. there's like a plastic cover that covers the whole of the bulk head and that's what mine was scraping on every half turn of the wheel..

anyway i just ended up push my steering wheel up from where i was, quite hard and that created the slightest gap from that plastic bit...... must have bin pulling my steering wheel down when i've bin ragging it in excitment!

might be some help to you :roll:
