mlouie2000 Posted January 17, 2013 Report Share Posted January 17, 2013 Hi, just picked up a 325ci sport 53 plate, everything was fine on the test drive last week but after covering 15 miles driving home, I have noticed a clicking noise when you turn the wheel. Haven't checked anything out yet but was wondering what are the possibilities. T he noise is from around the slip ring area Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

simonlpearce Posted January 17, 2013 Report Share Posted January 17, 2013 Another common problem on the E36 was on the steering column where it passes through the bulk head the joint dries up (too close to the exhaust with no shielding. Get some PTFE and give it a good spray. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
