Steering column squeak
 
Hello,

I have the dreaded steering squeak and its doing my head in now, I've seen a guide on here on how to stop it, but I have greased up the top bearing (with proper spray grease) and still no change, I know on the guide it says about the bottom bearing but this sounds like it is at the top, anyone else been though this?

Will try and add a video

Thanks

Same problem here, but it comes and goes. Do you have to take the air bag off to lube?

I did this last night, and sorted it ! It's the bottom bearing don't worry about the top one to start with I took the top bearing out the c clip and everything was a **** to get back in haha, there's a little spring and the bottom bearing under the engine bay where the steering column goes through the bulkhead I sprayed in there like the guides say coated it with spray grease and it's stopped squeaking :)
