For anyone that has a proper OMP steering wheel (not a copy) please please please take it off & check the Allen screws in the back of the wheel,

Today I felt a slight knock in the steering rack area, took the wheel of to find that one of the Allen screws was loose... Very dangerous!

Its a boss issue rather than a steering wheel issue then?

did you put some thread lock on whilst you were tightening the bolts? It might be worth it?

Yep all thread locked in now, I'd recommend anyone else to do the same - they don't come with lock tight on
