If it's similar to mine, was just the lower steering rod, the part that actually telescopes when you move the steering wheel.

You need to replace or re-grease this:

re-grease will only last a while to get rid of the annoying clunk
it's not all the difficult to replace. I re-greased mine when I first picked up my car just to make sure that's what it was. Came back in 7k. I'll replace it someday but it doesn't bother me much.

IIRC GM had a long standing problem similar to this in the 00's.
thanks a lot. my "premium" x1 is coming with a 2 year warranty. I will see what will they do in my next service.
