Steering Column BMW328i

Asked by Dougjam2b Apr 16, 2022 at 06:47 PM about the 2007 BMW 3 Series 328i Sedan RWD

Question type: Maintenance & Repair

Just pulled the steering column on my 2007 BMW328i in order to deactivate a locked steering column. Everything went smoothly until I began to reassemble it. Problem: bottom part of column shaft seems not to go all the way into the coupling. I've got it lined up okay with the ridge in the groove in the coupling. However, seems like it should go far enough in so that the grooved part of the shaft hugs around where the pinch bolt slides through. Question: exactly how far should the shaft go into the coupling. Don't want to take a chance and just tighten the pinch bolt without being sure it's in far enough. Anyone else encounter this? Thanks! DJ Lakewood Wa
