October 24Oct 24 Hello, I wonder if anyone has had the same issue as me. The steering emits a squeak when it there is moisture in the air, so during the warm months since I got the car in June, no noise at all. You can imagine what it has been like recently since it has been raining.... The forecourt I bought the car from has there own garage and they apparently have greased the steering joint, both side since they replaced the gearbox (under warranty) I am going back to them with this continuing issue, but I wanted to see if anyone on here has had the same issue and what it was? Thanks.
