If it's like mine, if you drop the lower dash panel over the pedals (just a couple of fasteners, you can see where the play is in the steering column; right at the joint w/the rubber bushing just above the floor. If you have it off, and jiggle the steering wheel back and forth, the play w/be obvious if that's the source of the clunk. Several shops hadn't been able to find it before I stumbled on it. Once I found the problem, I was a bit less concerned w/the clunk
I've been told the whole column must be replaced; if anyone's seen a partial column fix, I'd love to get rid of my clunk. The column as a whole is $$$ if you are out of warranty.
