Quiet buzz from steering wheel

Anyone heard this. Don't know if normal.
When turning at slow speed like when parking can hear a kind of buzz or whirring as the wheel turns. Sounds like an electric kind of buzz.
Anyone had this?
Booked in at LR anyway for this and couple of other minor issues but thought would ask here first!
Thanks

Cheers 76. Quite annoying that sound. If its normal that's fine!

Yeah the other things are minor, but seeing as bought from a main dealer I want it to be perfect. The alignment seems to be out so have asked them to put that right. Also, I asked them to change the badges from green to black, and they made a bit of a mess of the boot badges, so have asked them to put that right. Couple of other small things on the interior - an annoying squeak coming from the centre area near the sat nav screen / air vents so have asked them to look at that too.

Will report back how I get on.

Another oddity I noticed. The rear seats. The one behind the passenger looks to be higher up then the one behind the driver! Are they all like that too!!?

Pull the tag to lift the seat up, then push the seat back down with a little force and see if it sits lower, someone may of had the seat up and not pushed it back down properly.

Pushed down far as I could. IT just looks like left side is higher, especially the central bolster thing (or whatever it's called). I will post pics when I work out how to!
