E46 330i, is a bit of play in the steering normal or not?
Discussion
Hi guys, I've currently got a 53 plate 330i smoker. I have been doing a bit of work to get it back as it should be at 130k miles. This has involved new poly FCABs, new inner/outer track rods and new front discs to sort out a braking vibration issue.
Unfortunately I'm sure the steering rack has too much play. There just seems to be a bit in the middle where I can rock the wheel right to left a tiny bit. It's a purple tag rack and I'm just looking to find out if the play is a normal thing on these or if I need to replace it. Obviously I'm not paying new prices so I will need to find a low-ish mileage used item if replacement is required.
