it does the same.
Does anyone have a cure for this?"
Mike O'Brien responded saying "this was a problem that annoyed
me. However when getting some work done on my RV8 by Gavin Brown in
Tasmania, he fixed my problem by inserting some spacer washers onto
the bolts holding the steering column to the dash. In my case, and
I understand from Gavin, it is a common problem as the dashboard rubs
on the top of the steering column causing severe creaks. Inserting
the spacer washers completely eliminated the problem and he did the
fix in a couple of minutes!"
Footnote: a larger
copy of the diagram of the steering column (from page HO2 of the
RV8 Parts Manual) is available to enable readers to identify the
mounting bracket and fixing bolt. More
