Mine snapped and i bought a new one, does the steering wheel have to come off? Any help appreciated. Doh. Evan

ye you need to remove the wheel if i remember right, it isnt hard, just remove the nut on the end of the shaft and you should be about to wiggle the wheel from side to side and get it off. You shouldnt need a puller. Maybe a bit of CRC will help on the shaft. After you get the wheel off, just remove the steering wheel cover and then there are a couple of screws to remove the stalk assembly and then disconnect the wiring harness connector, and reassemble in the reverse. Its not a hard project. good luck

piece of piss - exactly what paco said.

ok thanks guys i will have a go! if i can change a turbo, injectors etc this shouldnt be too hard, but i have been wrong before Evan Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

eek, i think i need a puller, my arms back and wrists hurt god damn

a good way to get off stubborn steering wheels is to bash on either side of the wheel, say @ 4 o'clock, then @ 7 o'clock with your fist alternatively, this is how I got my wheel off, 4 hits and she popped!

mechanic ripped it straight off, its official either i am a weed or my technique was all wrong

hahaha, the EASIEST way to take the steering wheel off, is buy taking the horn cover off. undo the bolt, then while pulling on the wheel, give the shaft a decent hit with a hammer, and will come straight off!
