Anyone had problems with creaking from the steeringwheel? Not the steeringwheel itself, but when manouvering at slow speed (i.e. when parking) i get some creaking/clicking sounds fron the steeringwheel. You can hear it quite well outside the car. Might be something with the steering-rack.
I`m quite sure it`s not related to the undercarriage or suspention. I had a problem with a bolt on my old S85 that made a sound every time I turned the wheel all the way in parking scenarios. And I know how defective parts in the undercarriage sounds and feels. This is different. It`s sudden creaks from the steering-rack. Very noticeable both inside and outside the car. Like the sound when hard plastic snaps. But since it`s so loud outside the car, and constant, it`s probably not plastic.
Reason why I`m asking is:
1. Is it a known error/what`s the problem
2. Is it easy to fix
3. Is it dangerous
I`m going on holiday very soon. The chance of getting an appointment at a service center here in Oslo within a week are slim. But I might try if it`s important to get it looked at before a long vacation/road trip.
