Is it not the steering wheel itself? When i swapped mine over, it was catching / squeaking where it hit the steering collumn. I just put up with it until I changed it again for a flat bottom one

I dont think there are any differences. My wheel looked like it was tipped backwards slightly so was catching the top of the collumn

I'm sure that if you take the wheel off and the trim. And make sure that the trim is as far forward as it will go should sort it

This happened with my first car (corsa) when I changed the wheel... it was the slip ring that was causing the squeak. It eventually stopped once the contacts got dirty enough  :grin:
