Wobbly steering wheel video


http://youtu.be/rc8x77yAwSY

I'm not sure if my bearing is broken, or something fell out liuke a washer or if the 4 torx screws deep in the column are loose.

Any ideas based on the video evidence??

The wheel nut isn't tight, but I had tightened it before & there was no difference.

Thanks!!

It doesnt look like the tilt head because the bottom half isnt moving. I would pull the wheel and look at the bearings.

Turns out I had just forgot to put the spring seats back in before closing it up. Duh!

It's always the simple things. If you are like me I bet you were looking online for a new column!
