W221 ‘07 steering tilt
Hi all,

My steering column stopped tilting up and down. It is however going in and out, the car has easy exit feature. Can someone please tell me which part number it is and how to change it?

Thanks in advance!

Thank you Konigstiger for the info. Can you please tell me how to get to that part? I mean which panels I need to remove and so on. One more thing, I am planning on buying Star diagnostics and xentry as well. Any advice as to where should I purchase it from and what to watch out for? There are many available from the Chinese websites but I’ld rather not.
Thank you in advance!

They didnt, just that they tried to change the motor and that wasnt it.
