Well, that fix didn't last long. About 10 days after I posted that, the steering wheel began making the noise again.The noise started on my R1S when temperatures got colder (not sure if it's related).
I had mine repaired a few weeks ago by mobile service. They dry-lubed the foam that it was rubbing against. No more noise, but time will tell if it's a permanent fix.
FWIW, I was told that there's an updated part (foam piece?) being designed so this won't happen with future vehicles. And a software update may be deployed to change the order of the movements (tilt/telescope); I didn't test the order of movement on mine so I'm not sure if that's actually the source of the problem (I think it always happened when telescoping).
Has anyone gotten this fixed permanently?
