Hi there ,

People who make a donation have there questions prioritised, as you can well imagine, if you donated, would you like to be left in the queue? As i am the only moderator on line at the moment, and based in Australia, i am not that familiar with your car, but as you seem so concerned, may i suggest that you have a look under the dash at the steering column mounts, i would think that there would be 2 or 3 pick up points, and see if they are loose, if so tighten as best you can and go see a mechanic to have the column inspected to make sure it is safe. The last thing we want is to have you or your family put at risk.
