Another newbie here. I have an '05 Tundra, and am just now starting to work on it myself (it was nice there for awhile to not have to worry about it breaking down or anything).

What brought me here today is wobbly steering. I did a search of these forums, but must not be doing something right, because when I put "steering rack" or even "steering+rack" it just came back with looked like every single posting on every subject.

At about 58K miles (still under warranty then, and now it's 70K), the front end/steering didn't feel/sound quite right, so I took it to a mechanic with a great reputation (after being given an awful lot of run-around at the dealerships, for something not completely related). He just said "well, it's not brand new anymore". Didn't write anything on my receipt. It kept gradually getting worse, so I finally took a look myself today, and the steering rack is slopping back and forth and twisting, with steering wheel movement. I bet it's not supposed to do that... I am just so frustrated with all these ridiculous problems with this *Toyota*, Toyota formerly having such a good reputation, itself. And it's Saturday, and I can't talk to any of those people until Monday, but I don't expect them to say anything useful this time, either.

If anybody who has had a similar problem reads this, please gimme a shout.

thanks
Joy
