Column lock question
I bought an '02 about a month ago and have read all I can find on the column lock problem. Since mine is a MN6, I decided to get with the program and install the CLB. But as I was checking it out prior to buying the CLB, I noticed that the column does not lock! Does this mean the CLB has already been installed? I thought the recall only disabled the lock on A4's, not MN6's. Any ideas on this would be appreciated.

I would guess that the previous owner already put one in. Use this link if you'd like to check. http://www.ls1howto.com/index.php?ar...f4a2979a77ef4c
I wonder what other mods might be lurking in your ride? Cam? NO2?

w/ #2 & #3 posts above. It appears the CLB was already installed in your car.

May just want to check and see if the CLB has already been installed - easy to do and should take only about 15 minutes. If you can move the wheel from stop to stop with the ignition off, something had to be done.
