Steering wheel

Does the steering wheel have adjustable height settings? Mine just locks into the lowest position (it blocks my view of the dash readings and rubs my knees), when released it goes all the way to the top without locking into any other height. Is there a secrete to this or is mine broken?

Re: Steering wheel

Yes.

The lever you are using is to release the steering wheel to the top to make getting in and out of the car easier I guess. at the bottom center of the column is a wider latch similar to the hood release latch that allows the adjustment of the down position of the wheel.

Re: Steering wheel

There's also a telescopic adjustment, the long narrow lever.

Re: Steering wheel

Start at 4:50. The lady shows you where to reach for each steering wheel adjustment.
