[quote="GraemeS"]Once the ignition can be switched on, an IIDTool can disable the steering lock permanently, as I have done to mine. I doubt that the lock can be disabled whilst the ignition is off.

Hey GraemeS - I have a steering lock that is currently disengaged at all times. The car starts fine. I am interested in getting it coded out - how did you do this? Guessing nothing mechanical needs doing if it’s not in a locked position when re-coding? 2009 pre-facelift 3.6 TDV8.
