steering wheel clunk
I can feel a clunk through the steering wheel as if the spiral cable is moving side to side inside the column. Is this normal? This happens when I move the steering wheel.

Doesn't sound normal.
The steering should be quiet. Clunk is hard to associate with a cable, rather with a steering rack or tie rod end issues. Have it checked as soon as you can. Steering is critical for safety. |

At least in the states, there is a recall out on the spiral cable. Could be that: http://repairpal.com/recall/14V168000
If you had the spiral cable replaced, it could have been done improperly. |
