Creaking Steering Wheel

BuzzJax · 08-29-2016, 07:34 PM

Hi Folks,
I have an 04 2.5 with 112,000 on it. Recently I have noticed a creaking sound coming from somewhere down the steering column whenever I turn the wheel. Its the same in each direction and does not change the way the steering feels or functions. I did a a search and did not see any matches to this.

Any suggestions? Thanks

Try adjusting the wheel reach and height a little. I find that my wheel squeaks if I have it set to the upper limit of the height adjustment.
