Is there a provedure for proper adjustment of the steering box on these cars?

With my 635csi it used to be jack the front up and you should feel a tiny notch as you pass straight ahead???

I mean I know they are known to be vague but still...

Manual or power steering?

OK. Just remember it is important to center the steering box exactly when doing this. Adjust the track rods to center the steering wheel if you need to.
