They are notorious for steering shaft noise. The shaft between the steering colum and the rack. It will either be called the intermediate shaft or the mid shaft. I bet your local dealer has them in stock, it’s that common. (often it makes a slight popping noise as well)
Of course trim could be rubbing or the boot at the bottom could be rubbing, if those aren’t it, I bet it’s the shaft.
ISS. Intermediate steering shaft. Dealer does not replace them, they “milk” them as in – it’s actual GM word to describe the process. They remove it, repack with grease and “milk” two parts on each other in you know what motion.
But ISS does not squeak. It clunks in turn/up/down situation. Also, at take of and sudden halt.
Squeak is inside your steering column up at the top. Mine also rattled, if you grasp wheel firmly and shake it back fore.
That’s your famous GM iffing quality.[quote=”ukrkoz” post=127934]ISS. Intermediate steering shaft. Dealer does not replace them, they “milk” them as in – it’s actual GM word to describe the process. They remove it, repack with grease and “milk” two parts on each other in you know what motion.
