If noise is heard from the steering shaft or rack and pinion, both universal shaft pinch bolts, Part No. N.010.335.7, should be loosened and then retorqued to 35 N-m (25 ft. lbs.)
Additional noise dampening can be achieved by installing a new steering wheel cover with dampening foil, Part No. 944.347.057.00 + color code. Dampening foil has been included in production starting on Feb 04, 1983 with VIN. 94.DN457640.
