Hi Croco, Cheers for the response. After chatting to the toyota technician he mentioned about lack of grease in steering shaft! based on the original post with TNF outlining greasing and replacing intermediate steering shaft are all short term fixes, do I have the right to reject this proposal to add more grease to steering shaft? Anyway booked in this week for an assessment. Not too sure about printing the TNF as it is copywrited to show the technician what he is proposing is not approved by Toyota HQ.
