I've noticed a clicking sound coming from around my steering wheel or steering column. It notice it when I'm on a freeway exit ramp, when my steering wheel is turned pretty far to the left or right. It seems like a malfunction because of how many clicks there are -- there's not just one click, but a flutter of clicks happening for 1-2 seconds. Anyone noticed this?

whirring

I've got another sound issue. Recently while on the highway I was taking my 08 (4281 miles on it) out for a spin and noticed a slight whirring noise. something would click then whir for a bit then click off. I have to take it in for the 5k checkup soon...any ideas what this could be?

This might be a stupid question, but are your front or rear windshield wipers on? Or your rear defroster? Or your temperature control is set not to cold - but somewhere in between?

Could be the relay switch for the timed wipers or something making that noise... But if not, then I am fully dumb..... Just trying to help...

Not a clue. Better be able to duplicate it otherwise the dealer is gonna say no fault found and toss it out.
