Hi Grant,
I have a 900i 92 and recently spent 2000 (aus dollars) on the steering (tie rod, overhauled the steering pump, then new rack ends) to try to fix a similar problem to yours and in the end the mechanic that did the rack ends got in it and it still creaked and groaned and was super heavy to steer. So he poured half a can of CRC (wd40)down the steering shaft and that fixed the problem!!! doh. It all started on a very unusual 0 degree night here. My car was once or twice hard to get back to center after a tight u turn but was always really heavy to steer, its great now though. As to how you might do it I cant really tell you that lol .. he did tell me but I cant really remember cept it all starts by taking out the badge in the center of the steering wheel (I think). I'd advise you to try that first as it could save u some time and money.
Good Luck
