I noticed a few weeks ago a squeaking sound coming from the steering wheel. It doesn't matter if I am going straight, turning, sitting there idling, even parked with the engine off, I can get the squeak to happen by bumping or jerking the steering wheel.
It is very high pitch and comes in very fast bursts.
It is especially bad while on a bumpy road. I can change (but not stop) the squeaking if I push hard on the wheel while driving.
If I bump the steering wheel the right way while sitting there idling, the squeaking can stay by itself in super annoying full auto mode. I really don't know where to go to locate what's causing this.
I took the top and bottom black covers off from the wheel, and didn't find anything loose in there, and it sounds like the squeaking is coming from somewhere more forward of the steering wheel towards the engine area. Are there bearings or something that I can check/replace/grease?
This has got me really frustrated. I have noticed the only problems I have to fix with my truck are annoying ones, not serious ones that render it undriveable, but still...this is killing me.
Anyone with any ideas?
