2006 M35 X. STEERING COLUMN NOISE

[a6a42149]

WHEN I EXIT THE CAR AND THE STEERING COLUMN GOES UP TO ALLOW EASIER EXIT IT MAKES A RUBBING NOISE. A SIMILAR NOISE HAPPENS WHEN I TURN RIGHT WHEN I LEAVE MY DIVEWAY AT LOW SPEEDS.ANY IDEAS BEFORE I GO TO THE DEALER.

I have the same noise when I first start out of the driveway, but it quickly goes away after I've driven a couple of blocks and made a couple of turns.
