[QUOTE="Jipster, post: 98729, member: 97"] AFAIK.... there is usually an allowable amount of free play but anything excessive will be a symptom of something that requires changing. In my E30 the thing that required changing was the steering coupling. I dont know whether its the same for the E36. Heavy steering? Well, if you are on 17s you have to expect a heavy steering in the first place due to the amount of rubber making contact with the ground. Check the tire pressure. I'd check these simple things first before I move on to the more major bits :) [/QUOTE]
