  My 03 tilt steering column has up and down slop.
It?s only at the second position down. I just happened to noticed one day.
Not sure how long it?s been this way.  This is where I have the column most of the time driving.

Any Ideas what I should look for?

The searches I have done come up with the column bearings. Do not see any with this.

 
Does not appear to be too complicated.

  So I?m looking at disassembling the column?
Then inspecting tilt housing replace bearings while it?s down.
Well I will pull cover first and go from there.

Thanks MS03
