I know this may sound stupid, but I can't get the steering wheel off no matter how much work I do on it. There is a single nut (I think a 22 mm or so) with a lock washer underneath. I have doused the thing with spray-on lubricant to get it off, but after an hour of toiling with it last night, no go. Any tips??? The manual I have just talks about removing it, nothing more special than that.

Thanks,
Rory

Thats it. Just take the nut and lock washer off, then remove the steering wheel. Now wasn't that easy
I haven't encounter one that sticks, but sometimes they require a steering wheel puller. That I have no idea on. Mine usually slip off by vigerously jerking it back and forth at about 3 and 9 o'clock.
Maybe someone else has a better idea

Well - I will have another crack at it tonight - my wife is out for the weekend, so that will give me some time with 'rommel'! I have a new set of metric wrenches that I can try on it, so you never know - success may be around the corner - or a busted bolt on the column...
