Hi fellows, I noted on my Accord that the steering wheel (with car parked) has some kind of "clack" noise if I shake it with both hands, I don't know how to explain it as english is not my native language, but hope you understand. The same symptom occurs when driving on a rough surface, althoug it is not annoying, it seems like the steering wheel vibrates, I don't think it comes from the steering box, it feels like it may be the bearing that holds the steering shaft to the column behind the steering wheel, am I wrong? have anyone experienced something like that? Anybody knows how can it be fixed?
Thanks
Julian

Occam's razor (simplest solution)...Have you tried adjusting the tilt/telescoping steering slightly to see if it goes away...maybe its just not set/engaged properly... :dunno:

Yes I have, but still happens, as it is only on the steering wheel, not in the whole case around :thumbsdow
