There's a company in Poland. Google BMW edc refurb. Steering is heaven, I can now use the wheel to change direction rather than sending the front a text.
Thanks for that roofer, I'll be checking that out tonight!My steering is possessed and it needs to be fixed before the car kills me or I kill the car!

It was an absolute bd to get out with the engine in, the heat shield took nearly 2 hours on its own. I have left that much skin in the engine bay they could use it to give Jordan an uplift in cup size ! But it was definitely worth it. If the worm and nut has gone, they're 700 quid from ZF, but I was prepared to buy a new box from BMW for £1100, glad they stopped making them now !

A lot of people mess about with the pre load screw on the top of the box, Holman said they wouldn't touch the box if this had been disturbed.

When you say the pre load screw, if that is the allen screw on top of the box then I'm screwed literaly from getting Holman to touch my steering box. Just spoke with mate who works on the car and the box has already been adjusted.It was an absolute bd to get out with the engine in, the heat shield took nearly 2 hours on its own.

On a brighter note been in contact with Nagengast today and priced the rebuild of all 4 edc struts, I'm happy to say the cost is much more paletable than purchasing new units from BMW.
Thanks again for the information on who to contact.
will need to try and source another steering box that hasn't been tampered with which may prove difficult!
