Hello
I just bought a beautiful 89 560SL, white with burgundy interior. It's in great shape except for two problems.
First, there is a lot of play in the steering. I can probably move the wheel about 3-4 inches back and forth without feeling the car change direction. When the engine's off, I can hear a bit of clicking from what I think must be the steering box when I move the wheel back and forth. As you would guess, this makes the car hard to control sometimes, and driving is not so fun this way. I'm wondering if I can fix this easily. Would I need a new steering box? Would it be expensive to do?
Second, there's an engine issue which I'm covering in another posting.
Thanks a lot for the help. By the way I have the manual if anyone needs any information from it.
