Loving my WIZ but I noticed yesterday that the d-pad started squeeking when I press right. Anyone else experience this? Is it bad? (dpad works fine) If you have experienced this is there a way to stop the squeeking? Once again thanks everyone for your help as always! :)

Can't fix it, but it's preventable by not gaming and eating Cheetos simultaneously. The Cheesium messes with the molecular stucture of the plastic. (I jest) I don't know why your D-Pad is squeaking.

Mine does it too.

I ignore it or at least try to. It's very torture-ish, the little squeek when pressing right...

I have been contemplating pulling the Wiz apart just to clean the D-pad and see if that makes a difference, there might even be a bit of plastic rubbing which could be shaved down.

Thanks for posting glad I am not the only one. Got unit monday and it started squeeking wednesday. I have not noticed any affected performance yet, the squeeking just drives my fiance nuts ;) lol.
If you do open it and make any changes to rid of squeek plz post.
