This could be caused by the deterioration of this small flexible coupler located in the steering column. The good news is you don't need to have the entire steering column or intermediate shaft replaced as most people think. This tiny, $2.00 flexible coupler and two hours of labor could be the answer to your problem.

It's bolted to the outer edge of your transmission. If it's a front wheel drive, it may be near the front of the motor, where the engine and motor connect. Should only have two bolts holding it on. Hope this helps!
flywheels or flex plates ( manual or automatic)
flywheels will generally shatter the bell housing so It may be flex plates
They crack the center out from incorrect fitment of the washes at the crank shaft that makes them flex against the torque converter
generally it is the omission or the incorrect fitment of the large dish shaped washes or the flex plate not being turn around until all of the bolts screw all the way in finger tight
the units are make in thousands and last hundreds of thousands of miles so to have such a problem is lack of attention to detail on fitment or lack of trade skill in the fitting
you can try to buy new fly wheel or flex wheel at a auto parts stores but more likely dealership part.reason for flex plate to cracked due to stress and heat or starter bolt breaks causing starter hit flex wheel.
