Airbag on my steering wheel
Hey guys, i just wanted to know how i can pop out the air bag from the steering wheel, I need to get to the nut that holds the steering wheel to the steering shaft and torque it down.
My steering wheel is loose and it shifts from left to right while i'm driving but the tires don't move with the wheel. It will catch on after a couple degrees that i turn the wheel and then the tires themselves will turn. It's quite annoying and dangerous haha.
So if anyone can help that would be great. Thank you

make sure you disconnect battery terminal.
use T30 bit in wrench or screw driver, whatever you prefer. four bolts will allow you to remove steering wheel air bag.
theres 2 clips behind that, one for crews control, one for air bag.( a third which shouldnt be hooked up ...for carphone)

As Greens14 says, be certain to disconnect the battery. After doing so, for good measure, step on the brake pedal for ten seconds or so.
There are two pop out half moon shaped discs, one on either side of the steering wheel. Under those are the two T30 head screws. They are captured in the black plastic around their heads. There is no need to get them out, just back them out to the point where they are not holding onto anything.
The electrical connector is hinged. Be careful with it so you don't damage it.
