I cannot provide you with an audio or video clip but I'll try to describe it.

When turning the steering wheel lock to lock there was a sound like a creaking door. It only occurred when turning past 90deg and was worse when the cabin temperature was low.

I used a mechanics stethoscope and pinpointed the noise to being in/under the steering wheel centre.

Mechanic agreed and today I got the car back minus the noise with a new clock Spring steering angle sensor job thing fitted. Covered by the Volvo extended warranty.
