Doing a job today which meant removing steering column, and I was reminded that last time I removed wheel I discovered the washer which sits behind the 27mm nut (p/n N 012 239 1) is badly twisted! I've tried to show how deformed it is in photo.
Last time I just put it back, but now I wonder if I should replace? It's listed in PET as "spring washer". so maybe it is meant to be that shape? If not, how on earth did it ever get that shape given how tightly the wheel nut is torqued?
Thanks
