squeeking steering column

Post by bigjocky » Fri Feb 05, 2010 7:22 pm

my rs6 has recently developed an annoying squeek when im cruising from around the steering column, but when i move it, it goes away, is there a part that needs lubricating or what!! its so annoying!! i have the electric memory steering column if that makes any difference, anyone had this problem??????
