| Steering knock.. Still knocking. |
|
Have a knocking sound and feel in steering wheel. Most of the time this happens is when rolling foot off accelerator at 20-30 km/h. Turning from one side to other the knock happens exactly when passing straight ahead on steering.
First i had the rods replaced as 2 balls were worn out. Then today lower steering column was replaced.
Still no good 
Now an upper steering column is on order.
Reading about replaced rods due to worn balls, and replaced lower column due to steering knock it makes sense so far. But i have not seen anything on the forum about when those 2 fixes does not fix the steering.
Any ideas? - your opinion... is the dealer working in the right direction here ?
Am I missing something.
Cheers
Jakob
