Steering Column is Tilted?!

[goofygamer]

Hey everyone. I just noticed that my steering column is tilted about 45 degrees to the right. This kinda causes the car to steer a little more naturally to the right than the left and I was wondering if anyone else has had this issue? If so, what did you do?

P.S. I can post pictures tonight if nobody gets what I'm saying.

Thank you!

Oh I have a 1994 Integra GSR

is it the plastic piece where the key goes in to?

sounds like you just need an alignment to get the wheel straight

 

[goofygamer]

Yeah, its the plastic part where the key goes into. A wheel alignment can fix my whole tilted steering column?

what? we need pictures :thumbs up

if your whole steering colum is tilted, you have more major issues

 

[goofygamer]

Ai karumba!! Hope it's not too serious. Here are the pictures.

Thanks everyone

holy fuck, im not sure what this means but someone please answer the man, i wanna know whats up with this too.

 

[goofygamer]

ahh yes, the man needs answers please. I didn't even notice this when I purchased the car from the guy. Could have knocked off a hundred or more bucks from the sale. =[

No, I'm cambodian. why?
I did see the meal of the day thread and a lot of your filipino food is like ours haha noice

loosen the screws and reposition the shroud

Thanks. Is there anyway you can give me a diagram of the shroud and what screws besides the ones holding together the plastic pieces that I should loosen?

 

[goofygamer]

Anyone? Not sure what jdmjim means by shroud.

 

[jdmjim]

It's two pieces, take the screws out of the bottom of it and take it apart, something is askew

 

[goofygamer]

Are you talking about the two plastic pieces covering the steering column? I took it out already but the whole column is tilted not just the plastic pieces.

Can you take off the shroud and the lower dash cover then take a picture facing upwards? There are some big brackets and some gold colored nuts.
