Turns out the issue was play in the input shaft of the steering rack (independently verified) - rack replaced = solved.

Go to Air Conditioning -> Basic Settings -> Compressor run in, automatic start -> Hit the tick mark I had this on my S3 when I bought it used, don't know what causes the issue but this solved it for me. Do when engine running!

Sounds like the steering wheel slip ring, I had this issue on an A6 and three new clock springs later no resolution, sold the car - solved. I've heard of people on this forums lubing the clock spring but I think this is inadvisable as it contains the airbag wiring (amongst others). Does the...

Can't say I do, it's going to the mechanic tomorrow, will update if I get anywhere with it. Fingers crossed! I'd be surprised if the rack is the cause of the noise in the second video...could well be more like the top mounts as you say.

My car actually developed the issue over time on it's original slip ring, then the first replacement was no good after a day or two. This second replacement took a few days to start making the clicking and binding noises again but now it's back in full swing despite temperature and drive time...

Hi all, I've had a long standing issue with a creaking coming from my steering wheel - the dealer has said this is the slip ring for the airbag. Fast forward a few months the car is now on it's third slip ring and still the issue is persisting despite having the work carried out at a main...
