ok guys, my X5 is in dealershop now for the same reasons.
creaking noise from steering column when I go rough road and metal rubbing noise when I turn my steering wheel.
I had a test drive with tech. guys from there and they both noticed and are working to fix the problems.
so once I get my X5 back, I'll post the result later here.

Wow - I have that noise sometimes. Did you ever find out what it was?

I would have to look at the service order but they basically replaced the whole steering, it took them a couple of days because they had to pull the engine to do it, but they fixed it. Let me know and I can look for the SO.
