I gained a steering squeek on my way to work this morning, a sort of rubbery squeek that is just there throughout the wheel rotation but most noticeable at the start of movement or if you rock the wheel from side to side.
Jacked the car up when I got home - squeek is still there with the engine off and wheels off the ground and can be heard just as well from outside when pulling on the front wheels to rotate the steering (either side). Difficult to tell of course but I think the squeek is coming from the steering box/damper area rather than the wheels/suspension (just as loud, whichever side of the car you are on).
I did drop the under dash cover and lubricate the bulkhead grommet with a bit of light grease but no change.
Idea's please.
