Money laundering

looks like the bearing and gear are pressed on, no idea. I think Im going to take apart the one on the car to see if theres any other things that look wrong because that one is real noisy. I watched a video on a modern lexus column with electronic postion adjustments and its a similar concept...

Another socket ordered (41mm) This is for the nut that holds the worm gear in as Im having difficulty putting the column back into the housing, perhaps just a wack but not keen. Will take the worm gear out first then see from there, Im not sure what could be causing the problem, I think the main...

Havnt really been talked about, seen them once before but no info..

Cool! Yeah tests needed first, when you turn the car on for the first time it could start spinning lock to lock really quick and take your hand out or something :oops:

@pule333 Have you seen the quick release I had? It was a rapfix, zero play, it locates with ball bearings that are being pushed by springs so as/if things start to wear the spring just push the ball more to slacken up the gap (there is no gap) How about a deal you can have the rapfix if you...

@pule333 Thanks for letting me know, Im going to try and repair the mk2 for now one but unfortunately youve made me want the mk3 column just because modz haha. It does look way better and purposeful though, Im sure it will drive better and for the price they seem to go for same price even less...

I think this is what’s causing the problem, the blue gear is not seating properly to the metal worm gear so it’s too stiff. There’s 2 pins to detach parts it looks like. The actual gears look fine, blue is nylon I think, looks strong enough

Whats the wiring like for the 197 column? I was looking on ebay and the megane ones have the pump facing upwards too, the mounting looks strong Is the 197 distance adjustable as well as height?

No problem hope it works well

@pule333 Damn look at the frame around the column compared to the one on the mk2 made of tin foil. Is the mk2 motor gear housing compared to the 197 a considerable size difference? bigger is better (more powerful) What are you planning with that insane build? European hill climb? o_O

I thought I was following him as I haven’t seen this mod of the mk3 column? I would say that seems right, will this be another mk3 mod added to the lis?! After the rear hubs.. Does your epas setup do this? 😂

I would just sell you the hoses I made but I barely got any use out of them so will be going on a build further down the line
