Distinct Sound Coming from Steering Wheel Area
Guys as the title states I was wondering if any of you have experienced this sound that comes from the steering wheel area upon starting it up. It sounds almost like a calibration/squeaking sound (I know that's an odd combination). So, if anyone has experienced this, I would appreciate it if you could point me to what it could possibly be. Thanks!

My 2011 RX has a slow plastic or rubber twisting sound under steering column mostly after starting it up .
Seems to be tied to heating/AC system . Sounds like a vent door opening or closing .Change temp or vent position sets it off. I haven't tried to check it out yet.
