I would probably get some spares and keep them ready to use.

Threads merged as there's no need for the same question in 2 sections.

Thanks.

The steering uni started to stiffen up again over the weekend... Took the whole thing out, unis where like a rock!
Just replaced it with a aftermarket one, only took about 2 hrs...
Hopefully thats the end of it, feels good as new..:D

hey dudes did any of you who have had the stiff stearing wheel. did you have a noise coming from just behind the stearing wheel or under the plastic cover behind the stearing wheel sounding like wires being pulled along a sharp edge or like a lead has ended up twisted up on the stearing shaft. cant find anything on visual inspection. so hoping its a refered noise from down the shaft.
thanks

could be the clock spring for the airbag had my ragies broken by a tyre setvice and put up with a week of clicking and plastic grinding sounds from the steering column
