Heavy steering
Before I go and blast the dealer about another software glitch ….
My steering feels variably heavy and a bit lumpy.
It feels ok when making a turn but returning the wheel seems heavy …..both directions.
There is a marked contrast in movement from finger tip to arm ache.
I also think the steering wheel is not perfectly horizontal ….leaning towards 11 o’clock on perfectly flat straight road. It’s only a fraction out but I am dam certain I would have noticed it before.
My question is…can steering lose positional calibration like other components ( eg like seats) Could it be getting the wrong signals from wheel turning?
The car hasn’t been driven anywhere since it had the seat calibration done until today. I mentioned on another thread that the technician said there had been glitches with the N877 security update , including “a steering issue”.
Before I go and read the riot act over this being yet another problem due to the update, I just wondered if there could be another reason ? To be clear it hasn’t hit any potholes, tyres are good, alignment was done 1month ago……I’ve driven it sense then locally with no obvious behavioural problems. But I’ve just don’t 200miles and it drives smoothly. But steering feels unpredictable. A couple of times I made a sharp pull out to overtake and needed more effort to bring it back straight, ending up over correcting….a bit unnerving till I started getting the new feel.
Thoughts?
