Somebody please help me!!!!!
My S4 has developed a very annnoying dry steering noise at slow speed, and it also knocks slightly when driving along. Now I had the car lowered about 6months ago, so I expect I am putting extra stress through the steering, but I pretty sure it isnt the steering rack or CV's, as its a different type of knocking. So I took to removing the plastics belowthe steering wheel and noticed that the joint on the tube (Is this the universal joint???) seemed to be making the noise. I greased this up as best I could, and it did seem to stop the noise. Unfortunately after a 2hour run down to Kent, it seemed to come back. So I re-packed it again, but it didnt resolve this 2nd time round. Thing is, the noise is not all the time!!!Im pretty sure it is this joint, or was it just coincidence???
