Steering Wheel Noise
I just bought a 2011 Camaro 2SS, and I have noticed there is a faint steering wheel noise when turning the steering wheel. Kinda sounds like the noise a squeegee makes. Anyone else have this noise, and is it normal?

Just video recorded the noise. You can hear it at the 5 second mark.

If you have headers they are rubbing the steering shaft boot
You can pop the hood and see for yourself

Hey dude I had the same problem and went to the dealership and they told me to come back when I have a real problem and not some just faint noise on a 25k mile car. I really did not like their answer but I have just come to deal with it. I guess it is better than they don't rip my car apart just for some little noise which doesn't hurt anything. But that is just my 2 cents on the matter

There is an air bag part inside the steering column, technicians call it a clock spring. It is a rotating connection. That would be my guess. I can hear it in my car if it is quiet and the radio and A/C are off. I'm not concerned about mine.

Mine has a slight squeegee squeak when turning the wheel counter-clockwise and traveling slowly. It's mostly noticeable when manuvering through parking lots.
