| Two mechanics are required to perform adjustment. Perform adjustment with engine switched off. |
| –
| Raise vehicle on lifting platform. |

| If there is excessive play in the steering, a knocking noise will be audible when the steering wheel is rocked back and forth (about 30° either side of centre position). |
|
|
|
| –
| In this case, have the second mechanic carefully screw in the adjusting screw -1- into the cover until the knocking noise can no longer be heard inside the vehicle. |

| Carry out a road test. During this, ensure that the steering independently resets itself to the straight-ahead position after cornering, without catching. |
