Removing Airbag and Steering Wheel from a Maserati GranTurismo

This is a step by step video of removing and replacing the airbag and steering wheel on a 2009 Maserati GranTurismo S F1. The leather above the airbag on the steering wheel had distorted. I decided to replace it with a used steering wheel purchased on eBay.

Pretty good camera work, thank you. I get tired of those jiggly one-hand automotive operations.

Thank you!

Great tutorial which I followed today for a QPV. Top tips - leave the doors open before disconnecting the battery (doh) and 24mm for the steering wheel nut - Many thanks for making this tutorial!

THANK YOU! Just made a wheel swap and this was a HUGE help!

[@jimrobinson440]

You are very welcome. I am glad it helped!

Great job showing how to properly remove the Maserati Granturismo airbag and steering wheel. I wish to see a video on how to remove the gear selector shifter knob. Thanks

Thanks man, great video

Fantastic! My black piano clear coat needs to be redone.

have you lowered the car at all? I have the front coiler jammed between the upper and lower control arms and can't access any of the arm bolts to unjam it.

Hi. I tried today with 22mm socket I bought, it seems to small. Could it be 24mm? I assume the tab washer over the nut doesn't come off. Cheers.

Thanks for the Video. Have the same Problem. So you have to remove the whole wheel to fix it ?

My 2008 passenger side air bag is on can you help ?

[@salvadorsanchez1320]

Replaced both steering wheel and airbag?

Do you know of a ghibli wheel would fit on a granturismo ???

[@70chal440]

Not sure if it will fit. I would call your local Maserati dealer. They would know.
