Default Steering wheel noises????

Just wanted to know if anyone else has had this issu. I have 2002 C5 Z06, everytime I turn the while at a slow speed under 15mph; a loud moaning noise eminates from my steering wheel. WTF?!?!? at first I was able to ignore it but now it is getting annoying. Anyone had this issue?? Thanks.

yes.. had the exact same thing.. when I had the car in to the dealer for an oil change I had them look at it.. the steering col shaft just needed to be lubricated.. I think the squirt some goo under the boot that penetrates the firewall.. been great ever since.. total cost ($0)
