How long have you had the “new” wheel now?

I did not notice such a differenceI think you will find that this one solves it.
Question: compared to your older wheel, does your new wheel have a smaller gap where the two pieces of leather meet? It’s a little bit of a Princess and the Pea thing, but the older wheels were a bit easier to grip because they had deeper gaps.
Would you be wiling to upload a photo of your new streering wheel? Want to see if it's different than what they already replaced a couple months agoJust a few days so far. So we'll see if it remains "creakless." But I'm confident it will.
They look identical, so a photo won’t answer your question. Your service advisor will be able to tell you what version they put on. Also, If it doesn’t creek and your buttons are solid, chances are you have the most recent version.Would you be wiling to upload a photo of your new streering wheel?

I believe they will. Creaking is a known issue that a lot of us have encountered. And they’ve replaced many wheels because of it under warranty.I had my steering wheel replaced in March 2023 due to the right button breaking off. Initially it had zero squeak/creaks but a month ago it developed them annoying noises. Service took a look at it and applied some foam tape which mitigated about 75% of the noise. But a week after that service the creaks came right back. I plan to notify them of this issue again when I need to take it in for service. Will they replace it free of charge (2nd replacement) just because of the creaking?
I've also noticed a noise when I rotate the steering wheel. It sounds sort of like a faint ratcheting. My car was delivered Feb 2023. Curious whether you've heard back from service about yours?Honestly, I have no clue if the creaking is coming from the wheel or the plastic casing behind/under the wheel (or both). On Monday I reached out to the guy I have been dealing with at my service center to find out if I have the latest steering wheel. No response yet.
My service center guy was supposed to get back to me (last week) with current steering wheel version on my car but has yet to do so. Unfotuantely he doesn't respond very well so I have to continue bugging him. I will post once there are some developments ..I've also noticed a noise when I rotate the steering wheel.

You are probably right. Its just that it ends up going to him anyway I believe. I texted him again this morning. If I hear nothing back by tomorrow I will file an official service/issue with the main line.You might consider raising it with regular service so they can generate an internal ticket. I’m going to watch mine for a bit…I have a pending request for another QOL issue with the car anyway.
That's unfortunate to hear. Supposed to be getting another wheel tomorrow morning. This will be the 3rd wheel (original from when I got the car in May/2023, 1st replacement wheel at end of May/2023, and now this replacement..). In addition, they also performed some work on the 1st replacement wheel on a separate service call to eliminate the "creaking/squeaking", but the creaking/squeaking came back rather quickly.The creaking is still a problem in the August 2023 built Pure I took delivery of last week.
