Could it be the keys/keyring swinging and hitting something - that's what happened to me!

There is an odd hollow-metal clicking sound coming from somewhere in the steering column or ignition key area. Been to the dealer twice; they claim they can't hear it. It's drive me nuts. And it's worse when it's cool outside; in hot sun or warm weather it goes away. Sometimes it doesn't even require a bump in the road to hear it. Anyone have advice or similar experience/solution? Thanks very much in advance.
