Steering wheel noise when adjusting up or down.
My '01 X5 steering wheel makes a crackling noise when adjusting vertically (tilting up or down). It's getting louder. Any ideas?? Thanks.

Don't worry. Get some leather or vinyl conditioner, or even better the some tire dressing and adj. steering wheel all the way out and down. Apply the lube, and start to move wheel in and up and out every way. Apply as needed. Promise it will go away. Then it will come back after sometime, but do it again and you will be fine. I just did mine again today after 1yr and half. No be deal. Good luck.
