Reply to "Strong vibrations"

I am pretty sure it is the steering column. There is no slack ( sorry for the bad englisch ) in the turning movement, but it is easy to move the steering wheel up and down. Actually, if you have a look how it is build, it is a mirical that this not a common problem. The steering column is mounted under the dash with two " collar brackets" only a couple of inches wide. From there to the steering wheel is a proper leverage.
If you go down from these brackets you first get what we call a knee connection. Then it pierces the bulckhead through a rubber collar and an another two knees to connect to the steering rack. So the steering column is only mounted to the car through these close collars and the steering rack. Not paticular a sofisticated design.
To solve my problem, I have to stabalize my steering column, and was wondering how many people have this problem.
