Steering wheel play deadzone slop at 12 o'clock

F10 535, steering wheel has weird 12 o'clock deadzone, where the wheel can move about a half inch either direction before steering engages. I don't think these have a steering guibo/flex disk, any other possible culprits?

Thanks all!

If you are stationary and wiggle the steering back and forth do you feel a light clunk too?
