I have the same issue with my steering wheel and was told by the Lexus dealer "Recommend Replacing Spiral Cable" and were asking for approx 650$.
I did try the silicone/WD-40 but that did not help.
Since the issue is not bothering me much i am not going to spend 650 on it.
If anyone knows what is the spiral cable that Lexus mentioned please let me know.

Spiral cable sits in the steering wheel.

One has to trace the source of the noise.
