KY jelly your steering wheel, bro

(hmm, more seriously it could have to do with your clockspring. I feel like mine was making related noises before it broke

sounds like a spring bending in a way it doesn't want to.

mine makes a clicking sound when i turn the wheel with the blinker on. but that is a pre-01 issue with some silver plates or something in the wheel.
