Unhappy noise coming from under steering column?

Just wondering if anyone has problem with a slight noise coming from (what sounds like) under the steering column? It's not that bad, but still it makes me wonder what it could be. It makes a soft clicking noise.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks.

No problem, I remembered others with the same issue.

I did a forum search here on "noise and steering and column" (for future reference).

There is a little plastic bushing thing on the firewall side of the column u-joint. try pushing this thing in towards the wheel and/ or rotating slightly. I was looking and feeling it rocking the wheel and that's where it came from. fidgeting with it like that fixed mine perfectly. Lubricating it may help as well.
