DB22

Has anyone had an intermittent grinding noise when you get in the car, press the start button and the steering wheel moves to its preset down position?

Mine seems to be worse on colder environments but doesn't always do it. In fact it is typically only the first start up of the day.

Needless to say, dealer states that they cannot duplicate problem.

We just had this fixed for our A7. Looks like they diagnosed using stethoscope, and lubricated something inside the steering column. The rubbing sound is gone.
