We have an airbag fitted and after removing this and the large nut and locking washer the steering wheel doesn't appear to wanna budge.

put the nut back on a few threads so not to smack your self in the face lol
grab both sides of the wheel and pull as hard as poss with you feet pushing on the floor as if you were standing up. then rock from side to side and it should come off

i tried this and only suceded in snaping the wheel away from the boss which i then had to saw off. use a wheel puller, works wonders apparently

or you can put the nut back on a few therads and put the socket back over it then put a long extention on the socket and hit the end of it lightly with a hammer whiles somebody pulls it. works EVRY time
