An update to my steering wheel click for the 2010 MDX, had it in finally for the B16 service, they informed me that it was a cable reel, they ordered in part, replaced and now my steering wheel is like the day I bought it, fixed and most importantly, quiet. I needed a loaner vehicle for 2 days but nothing too inconvenient.

 

An update to my problem, 2-3 days after the Cable Reel replacement, my steering wheel click has returned, annoying and rediculous. I'm not sure if I will bother having them tear my steering column down again, I'm afraid they might break something or make it worse in the process, specifically when they didn't correct in the first place.

 

Is this the sound? we should all sign a petition to fix this as TSB.

I have reported this issue every time the car is in for regular service.
but of course the car will not make the sound when at the dealer
lately the car is doing the sound a lot - (but not the sound like in the recent video link), mine is more of a clunk/pop sound that you can feel in the steering wheel as much hear.

seems to do the sound less so after the car has been driven for a long while
- so it will make the sound freq on my short drive to work

then over a long drive - less so - (like the drive to the dealer)

and not like the video - my car has to be moving - such as going thru a turn
and now even when going straight just pulling away from a traffic light
