squeaky steering wheel
my steering wheel squeaks when I turn the wheel. It is not power steering fluid or anything. It is coming from just behind the wheel. kind of a high pitch rubber on rubber kinda squeak. I am just going to spray wd-40 in the seams. I'm kidding, sorta.

If the steering wheel isnt rubbing on the plastic trim, youll need a new clockspring. Otherwise your steering column has probably collapsed and youll need to replace the whole steering column.

it has not been in a accident and the light isn't on. I kinda think it is just rubber and plastic rubbin. I'm thinking about taking off the plastic around the column and trying to decifer it that way. While trying not to ruin the whole thing.

My car was doing the SAME thing, and I tok apart the entire steering colum assembly. It was actually one of the ball joints (look at that pic and it's where the far left red line pointed to). I soaked it in oil and it fixed it. That was about 4 mos ago. Just recently it started squeaking again. Not sure what the dealio is though?? I dont feel like taking it apart AGAIN.
