Unhappy Gronk

My steering wheel just started making the "GRONK" sound when it begins moving into place after starting the car. I think finding this noise and fixing it could be real messy.

Anyone else doin' the GRONK?

On the UK board I check this has just been reported as a known fault. The problem is the steering wheel shroud needs replacing with a new part, from Germany apparently.

Mine has been doing it for ages. It doesn't really bother me enough to take it in to the dealer. It certainly sounds like the shroud is rubbing on the instrument panel.

Mine does this occaisionally. I hope it doesn't get worse. Or maybe I hope it get's way worse while I'm still under warranty. :-)
