How to disengage steering wheel tilt?

I did a search but none found. So, how can I disengage the steering wheel tilt? I prefer the steering column to be fixed instead of moving up and down once the ignition is turned on/off respectively.

My other reason is to prevent the motor from failing (which I have discovered while searching the forum)?

It should be in your menu on your Nav interface. I no longer have one, but if I remember correctly, you could choose it as an option along with the seat sliding in and out for entry.

I don't think so Timmay - I'm pretty sure this is a dealer code option only (e.g. GT1 or equivalent).
