Are you sure it's the wheel? Did you jack the car up and spin the wheel? Also, I have no idea what sliding on hot leather sounds like. Am I supposed to be naked?

yes im sure its the steering wheel.although i could jack the car but it sounds like its coming from right where the steering wheel can pivot
and yes you should be naked and sweaty when u rub across the leather

You may want to send Fuzzyneon a PM. I was working with him on a TSB about a click/squeak in his column.

The rack was recently replaced.... check the bubber boot where the column goes through the floor. It might be rubbing on that.

Try removing the upper and lower trim pieces (like getting to the MFS)from the column. Maybe it's rubbing on them somehow. Or while you have it apart spray some lube in there. My Jeep makes a noise when it gets cold, but it is a little different than that.
