Re: driver side rear marker light

well, if the tire pressure was significantly lower than spec, that will certainly cause hard steering on a manual rack car, no doubt.
I hope thats all it is!

Re: driver side rear marker light

Does your car have power assisted steering, or just a manual rack? If power, could be the belt, the pump, or the rack itself. If its a manual, you can oil the rack but if it is the rack its probably shot. Alignment issues can also cause hard steering on a manual rack

Re: driver side rear marker light

I suggest you buy new. As I recall, the whole assembly is reasonable price. You are lucky the damage was not worse.

driver side rear marker light

Greetings, anybody out there got a driver side rear marker light assembly? Mine got taken out by a deer last night. It ran right into the rear wheelwell area as I drove by. That particular deer wont be running anywhere else tho. Amazingly, the dent popped out almost perfect when I hit it from inside the trunk. So the light will complete the repairs on this otherwise pristine (cough, ahem ) 320is.
Thanks,
G
