Bearing at bottom of steering spindle2. Bearing at top of steering spindle3. Steering wheel slip ringSince I had replaced the top steering bearing, so what I have to do is going to check the below bearing and lubricate it with WD-40 or any other lubrication, chain oil can use too. <img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite1" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)" loading="lazy" data-shortname=":)" />.Im sure this can be applied to E36 325/328 too, but I dont have the picture to show.<img src="http://img507.imageshack.us/img507/3560/img0106zh.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" />Hope this info can help to save money for everyone.
