My steering column squeaks when turned. You mostly notice it when moving slow and turning sharp. I just bought it as a replacement for another 98 that a deer ran into. Can anyone tell me what the root cause might be?
I'm thinking the two-three months is sat might be the cause and that it may go away on it's own. On the other hand it could be as simple as the cover rubbing the column as it rotates, or could it be a bushing or bearing. The sound seems to radiate down the column where it can be heard on the outside, but definately starts at the wheel base.
The sterring is tight, responsive, and does not wonder at all. The vehicle has been well taken care of and has a near new appearence.
Thanks
