Default Creaking from steering wheel
I've noticed a very subtle creaking sound from my steering wheel at very low speeds and stops. If I move the wheel about 1-2 inches to either side I hear it. It sounds like it's coming from the wheel (as opposed to the steering linkage or the rack itself). Once I'm moving above 5 mph or so it disappears.
Anyone have a solution for this?

Default I have been told that the creaking...
is probably the control arm.

Would the control arm be effected at a standstill?
