Went to Trailvoy with this question and NOBODY WAS HOME...

First, HOLY CRAP has that site gone to hell...Someone sent me a PM and said everyone was over here, so...
I've got a rubbing sound (like nylon against nylon) directly behind my wheel. It's on my 2010 Equinox (I know...) and the gap is very small. Just thought I'd get some input from the crew here as on this site (versus many others) most of you have turned a screwdriver or wrench a time or two.

Yup, steering wheel. The sound comes from right behind the wheel as it meets the comumn, before it goes past the dash to the floor.

Mine does the same. I think it is pretty common and doesn't hurt anything.

x2 I only notice mine when I'm going slow and turning the wheel a small amount.
There are threads about oiling/greasing it to fix it.

Mine as well, it would come and go as the temp changed, I think it was more common when cold and as summer rolled around, it would go away until next Dec.
