HELP - Steering Wheel Loose.
I was driving home today when I hit a bump and the steering wheel was suddenly loose. I can actually hold it and move it around a bit.
The car still turns fine, but I think the shaft that is connected to the steering wheel is loose somewhere. I'm pulling out my Bentley manual to see where to start. Can anyone help?

Does it move up/down/left/right or in/out.
If In/out, you have a serious problem. Most likely something holding the column in place was jarred loose. If it is the up/down etc, then most likely your plastic bushing broke. Do a search for steering wheel bushing replacement or look at the tech article in the Pelican Tech Section for how to address. You should find the post by John Walker about the need to lube the 928 collar to prevent premature wear.
