Sounds like a noise dry rubber would make... Although I'm clutching at straws here.

Hi Guys,
Any one found a solution yet for this squeak yet . My missus has an Astra J we bought last week and it's doing the same thing.
Cheers ....

it sounds to me like plastic rubbing (rather than a noisy bearing)
something like the the steering wheel touching the cowling - have you had the cowling or wheel off recently?
retrofitted = DAB+, GM dog guard, GM reversing camera

Phoned him and he says steering wheel not removed etc. It only seems to make a sound when making small turns in town roads. I drove it up the motorway 150 miles when I picked it up for my wife and never noticed it. I admit its not a mechanical sound but an irritating little squeak ... ehheeee ehee
