Noise and beating in steering wheel

[mpo]

Hello,

Is anybody meets such a problem?

After 500-2500km many (more than 100) Ceed's drivers in Russia discover very bad habbit:
1. It starts with light noise when you turn steering wheel left
2. But after about 500km this noise becoming stronger, and after it's really starts to beat even on normal road, but on country road or on gravel - this really could make you mad

Koreans said that light noise when you turn steering wheel left is normal
So what do you think?
Or this only problem for See'd comming to Russia?

Over 3000 miles now, and no issues with what you describe.

Me neither, coming up on 3K miles and no noises let alone beating!
If you can hear the noise while driving then I'd have thought it was quite a loud noise? That can't be right.
What sort of warranty do you get in Russia?

Some members of our club (kia ceed club | клуб любителей киа �ид, мы говорим о kia ceed) - about 30% with this trouble got the exchange of whole steering wheel mechanizm, but some of them got refuse. And what is most strange of that - that there is no explanation ethere from dilers ether from official KIA authority.
So, here every body wonder....
In Russia some dilers gives waranty for 3years or 100000km some 5years or 120000km

Out of this most of our members got that problems:
1. CD player some times (without any visible risons) could hang
2. Driver seat (with height adjustment) not firm this adjustment well - so in few houndreds kilometers you simply going down.
3. Turning sign lever not return to original position after turning left

and this is only most common problems....

It happens on all models: LX, EX (FX is not imported to Russia)

one issue like this in Romania, with replacement of a lot of parts, but no such extent (30%)

Hi,
I drive a Cee'd 1.4 Vivid.

1)After one year and 27000 KM i hear a noise turning steering
right or left.
2) When road paving is bad there is continuous noise left.

Does any body know what's the problem?

I also have the same symptom! Specially when turning left!

my steering wheel squeaks a bit, but now you had me worried.

I know that when this happened with latest astra H, and it was a plague in croatia, that meant 1500€ for CIM module. It's a module within the wheel that controls everything electrical, like lights, ignition, signal, wipers... I hope cee'd has it worked out differently, 'cos it didn't work for opel
