slight play in steering rack

Hi guys,
If you grab the wheel and push up and down there is a small amount of movement, when turning a corner and foot resting on the clutch you can feel movement/friction relating to turning the wheel.. any ideas? is there something that just need tighterning? do i need to take all the dash out to get access?
Cheers
Alex

there is 1 bolt holding the lock housing to the outer colum tube which often loosens itself, you dont even need to remove the lower cowling to get to it there is a hanfdy access hole in the cowling. though its only 2 screws to remove it, makes it easier to see what you are doing
