Re: Steering column knock ???

No "serious" problems. Steering intermediate shaft noise(if thats what you have)is just annoying, not dangerous. You can replace it or lube it. There is a post on here somewhere about installing a grease zerk into the shaft.
Also, if you disconnect the the shaft from the lower shaft, the one that goes to the gear, you can slide the (i'm trying to make this a clean as possible) upper shaft in and out towards the steering column several times to re-distribute the grease inside the shaft. This will stop the noise for a while, but not a permanent fix.
