squeeky steering wheel update

if anyone remembers, I had problems with noisy plastic on the wheel.

I just came from the garage, they took the wheel apart, applied self adhesive rubber on places where plastic parts of the wheel come in contact and that's it.

The wheel is now very stiff and the noise gone.

It was done in 30 minutes. Great job from the guys at the garage

I have!
The steering has some really cheap plastics! Under direct sun it "squeaks"! :|

after two months, now repaired steering wheel still works very good.

as for quality, I got a lot of car for not much money. some cheap plastic, yes, but it drives and feels great, with high level of comfort.

I rather have great machine than great trim any time, and so far, this car is a jewel of engineering for the price.

just like toyota, crappy interiors, noisy plastics, and it runs and runs and runs...

mercedes, at the same time, high price, very classy, 20 times a year at the service. we had a guy in croatia trying to set the car on fire at the merc dealer's parking (after 6000km)
