Steering column rattle - Marinejim007 - 16-07-2024 Steering column rattle. I would appreciate if some kind person could please help. I have a 1932 Austin RN The steering column rattles and it sounds as if the stator tune is rattling inside the column. There is also a slight rattle the steering wheel and the advance and retard mechanism. Any advice would be much appreciated. Many thanks, Jim RE: Steering column rattle - AustinWood - 16-07-2024 Our steering column rattled when the wheel was slightlu loose. RE: Steering column rattle - Reckless Rat - 16-07-2024 If you have throttle and advance/retard levers fitted they can vibrate and rattle at the ends and the noise can be amplified by the stator tubes. Solved it on my car by taking them off as I don't need them. RE: Steering column rattle - Chris Garner - 16-07-2024 I know '29 car's steering outer columns were fitted with a bush, manufactured in a cork like material. Is this missing?
