Squeak when steering wheel goes in and out (as during Easy Entry)

[RichAZ/CapeCod]

Had our M3 SR since end of August. When the steering wheel goes into/out of Easy Entry (or anytime it moves in or out for that matter) there is a squeak or kind of a squeal. Don't think it a big deal, just wonder if anyone else has experienced this and if you guys think I should bother to have the "issue" dealt with at Tesla service?

That happened to me yesterday, just got the car on Friday. I think it was because the wheel was all the way up when i tried to move it in and out. As soon as i lowered it, the noise stopped.

Thanks Maggit13. Checked exactly when the squeak/squeal took place. Was when wheel was at maximum "up" position. No biggie.

I think this is “normal”.
