XJS 1988 Steering noise
Hello everyone,
Travelling along a road which is not Freeway material, a noise very similar to plastic rubbing on plastic generates from around the dash, steering column assembly.
If you press the top of the steering wheel it stops; release and off it goes again, turning the wheel sharply in either direction on a straight road also stops the noise.
I have removed the covers on steering assembly (indicator wipers ect), disassembled the adjustable steering column, checked and tightened the column holding brackets, and every fastener I could find all to no avail.
Help would be appreciated, as I'm fed up driving this car with the hearing aids switched off.
