Okay I know the stearing on RA's can be kinda squeaky after a while, but I just got back from my usual 2 week stint away on the mine and yeah its like squeaking heaps and loudly with almost every turn! It used to just be when cold in the morning, but now it doesnt stop. it sounds terrible! Its going in for service this week and I'm getting them to look at the stearing.
All my ranting aside, does anyone know what may be causing this more specifically so I can give the dealer something to focus on etc. Only taking it to them because of warranty... and they are pretty good.

 

So i know this is an old thread but have you found out what the problem is? Mine is doing the same now and i have been told that i may need to replace the whole strut.

 

Hope it doesn't happen to me. Hey Ryan, how much did you purchase your 06 VRX for?

 

Mine did that too... The original dealer did not remove the spring spacers used for shipping and some of the plastic under the steering column.... Made a huge difference once I got that done...

 

OH YEAH, which reminds me.

I had my drivers belt squeaking and my steering wheel making a slight noise..during the first 1500kms.

I took it in for the first service and they had told me that they the dealer did not remove something under the car which is placed there before purchase and removed after purchase. I think it was like a bolt or something..

Thats gotta be the problem.

 

try spaying lubricant on the steering boot by the firewall.(inside of car)

 

Mine does the same dang thing!!!! Been in three times for it. CD player skips all the damn time also.
