k11 steering wheels

[Novasteve]

Are they a straight swap for k10s? sure I read that somewhere.

 

[Shaun]

you will find that a lot of steering wheels would fit if you tried loads! are you talking about the standard k11 steering wheels?
dont they have airbags?

 

[imp124]

i know from what i have tried that P reg primera steering wheels do fit perfectly i dont see why early k11 one wont but i have no personal experience sorry

 

[Novasteve]

I saw a k11 3 spoke wheel on ebay and it looked like a non airbag one.

 

[Novasteve]

Ok, ive bought the k11 steering wheel, but it doesnt fit properly! It physically goes on the column ok but after I tightened it up I went out for a test drive and when you turn the wheel it doesnt feedback!! I thought maybe i'd overtightened it but even with it quite loose its still the same.

Any advise as to why?

As far as I was aware almost all Nissan steering wheels were interchangeable so you shouldn't have had any problems with it, by "feedback" do you mean the wheel doesnt turn back on its own?

Have you got a pic of the steering wheel?

Yep, it feeds back most of the way but the last bit doesnt, or if your driving in a staright line and you move the wheel slightly to the left it'll just stay there and you veer off, no problems with the old one though. ???

[Novasteve]

yeah thats the one mate

 

[Reuben]

sounds like its making some sort of friction with something :suspect: maybe needs some kind of spacer??

 

[Novasteve]

I had thought that but don't think its the answer, on the back where the horn contact is there is a raised edge which I thought what was causing the friction but thats not it.

Anyone else had troubles fitting one? I'm gonna have another look tomorrow but can't really see what else is causing it.

Your front tyres may be down a few PSI with all these pot holes.

 

[Shaun]

I don't think you'll ever find a nice flat even road to test the feedback properly as we have rubbish roads!
Are the hub teeth still ok?

 

[Novasteve]

Yeah the teeth are fine, the problem is, if you are going along in a straight line and you move the wheel a tad it just stays there, as if the steering lock is on!! I'm sure its touching somewhere it shouldn't but ive already ground down two bits which I thought were causing it, but its still the same.

 

[Shaun]

hmmm.... maybe some photos would help? if you can manage it, does sound very odd

 

[Reuben]

weird problem this is :S i'm sure someone will spot the problem though with some pics (Y)
