So after hearing a click after changing my drivers track rod end i discovered a click/clunk around the drivers area, i thought it could be the steering rack loose, so i got under the car and couldn't get enough height to get a spanner slid through to the bolts nor a ratchet, so i took it to my mechanic, got it up on the ramps and he used a spanner slid through the ARB to get to the bolts...
They did tighten half a turn, thought ah ok maybe fixed, problem still lied, he got into the drivers foot well and turned the wheel where it was clicking, he said it was the steering column, not sure where abouts, and its an expensive and labour-intensive fix, dialogues said 430ish for the column and he said about 4 hours labour...
I got home and diagnosed it myself, i haven't had time to get the dash off yet... im hoping something can be sorted with it...
Anyway putting getting it changed aside because its just annoying sometimes and doesn't actually effect the drive, i can hear it next to the steering wheel in the case under the dials... has anyone else had this problem? is it fixable without a new column?
