Steering Wheel Noise

[Bootneckshuffl]

Hi guys

noticed over the past few days, a grinding noise on turning the steering wheel whilst stationary. It’s not the tyres on the road, this is a grinding noise coming seemingly from the column.

Anyone else had this?

Yes, me. I had it from new. SC sorted it straight away - needed some lubrication. They seemed to know what it was straight away.

Common problem. SC just add some grease somewhere to fix it. Mine did it on delivery.

Cheers guys I’ll get them to sort it out cos it’s going in jan for a few bits and pieces

Do they charge for this?

Mine had this noise from new in August 2020 but I never reported it.
Thinking of reporting but wanted to know if they charge and whether or not you have to take it into tesla?

It should be done under warranty (i.e FOC). Just make a request using the app and maybe you might get a ranger visit you...
