Creaking Stearing

Hi,

 

Another "feature" just appeared. My stearing column has started to creak :(

 

Is there anything I can do to stop it (other than stop turning it).

 

Another thing to mention at the service!

 

Cheers

Is it creaking when you turn it, or creaking on the straight ahead? If it is straight ahead, the steering rack might just need tightening.

 

Wouldn't worry too much as you are under warranty anyway :(

It creaks when I turn the wheel.

 

PS

 

Sorry to confuse, but I'm using Fiona's log-on as I can remember my password!

If you work out what is wrong with the squeeking let me know, mine squeaks like a gerbil :D The car is so noisy though you only notice it at low speeds!

What,

 

I thought S1s were better than gay S2s!

 

Found the squeak ...... hairbrush left behind the dash.

:D

rack on my S1 creaked like hell so i gave it a good squirt of WD40 down by the pedals below the steering UJs and it's great now, no noise and a bit slicker.
