In today's tutorial video, you will learn how to remove the steering wheel from a first-generation Mercedes A-Class. First, get inside the car and turn the steering wheel until you can access the screw located inside the hole: then, unscrew it to release the center part of the steering wheel (the airbag).

At this point, you will need to unscrew the central bolt of the steering column using a ratchet wrench with an extension or a socket wrench: once done, pull the steering wheel towards you to extract it. Next, reassemble everything by applying the reverse procedure!
