: More steering noise

I know there are TSB's to lube the shaft and to replace the bearing in the shaft. Is there also one covering the steering box. I'm getting ready to do battle with the dealer over the noise/feel in my steering column and want all the bulletins I can muster.





Thanks

I already have that bulletin. I asked if there was one about replacing the steering box.

Dealer put new box in mine a few monthes ago to try to get play out of steering. The new box is worse and rattle is back. They are now saying they will put the bearring in the new box. It's starting to seem like I'll have to live with the problem.





What really ticks me off is that my '98 with 90k miles was nearly as tight as new, and definately tighter than this one at 20k.
