Default Steering wheel squeaky noise

My 2008 GS 460 with 53k steering wheel makes a squeaky noise when I turn the car on and it moves to it's memory position, but only during the heat. Anyone else experience this and how can I get rid of it?

mine does it as well, haven't been doing it lately but i haven't had time to look under the steering column. My guess is there is a place where u can put some kind of lube/grease somewhere.

Mine has been doing it for years. I suspect it's not an easy process to add lubrication to it. I bring my car in for the fuel sensor recall next week maybe I'll ask in passing what they can do about it though I suspect they will nonchalantly report some thousand dollar figure involving replacing the flux capacitor.

Thanks Jay, appreciate it. I'm sure it'll be a nice fat $1500 service.
