Post by mcc05 » Wed Dec 01, 2010 8:18 am

Hi all,
Has anyone else had this issue and sovled it, when I turn the steering wheel about a quater turn and back it squeaks, I've tried WD40 at the top joint but thats not helped. Any advise on other points to lubricate?

I've had this on my last X and now this one - it is annoying, but I've never managed to fix it on either. So any suggestions would be welcomed.....

Cheers
