Guys, i am the 2nd one experiencing the same issue, One day, I had to park my car and when I was steering the wheel, I heard that grinding noice coming out of the steering column. I thought it could be a dust or something really small which is kind of stuck in the steering column. but after couple of days, I noticed that grinding noise is gone now. Dont know what was the major cause but since yhou are having the same issue so I will check mine once again and will update you

Dont worry dude, Will check tomorrow or over the weekend and will update you. I got hell of contacts in HONDA I-10, so lets keep the fingers crossed.

It happens to me in Summer seasons. I hear a little noise as if some steel parts were rubbing against each other (not grinding). I think its normal as it happens momentarily. I haven't heard this noise for more than 3 months.

my city also gives same noise... i went to Honda centre and they said it is normal, not to worry about. you are not second one, every city gives same noise, i have tried more than 3

the best part is that if its normal then everyone live with it.

CNG has nothing to do with the steering. Go and get it checked. If they say they wont entertain you then its something else, but atleast try

An update : The 75% noise vaished off at its own next morning... now there is very very little noise left and i expect that to get sattle as well... so end of the day am clueless abt how and why there was such noise...

I say you have the Universal joint in the steering column greased.

I kept my CITY 2009 with me for some 18 months...I faced the same problem couple of times...but the sound went away before I got chance to visit the dealership...it lasted not more than a day or so...both times...

the noise is the motor labouring while you play with the steering sitting at idle - the motor heats up very quickly and sometimes also ceases to function and turns on the steering light.

The steering is there for your assist - please use it responsibly, do not turn the wheel very fast - and dont turn it fully while stationary, slight movement of the vehicle is needed anyway or you stress the steering tie rod ends badly

too add, never park your car with tires/steering turned, it harms the axel boot

So one thing is for sure now. Honda City 2009-10 has a STEERING ISSUE.
