Theorizing on something without evidence leads to people who know their shit getting annoyed, especially if you're suggesting a feature that would be widely known (i.e. this feature WOULD be in the owners manual). Not to mention it was brought up in an earlier post that you apparently disregarded. |

This would only explain a difference in steering assist - you are still dealing with a mechanical rack and pinion. You are not going to change the steering ratio. If you are really needing more turns of the steering wheel to turn the car then something mechanical is borked.

I shoot a lot of adult films, I often have to set up scenes by lifting heavy breasts and placing them over furniture, tables and such. After a long day of hoisting them by hand or with spatulas for older women, the steering also feels light and uninspiring on my FR-S, something to consider.

I would check my blinker fluid first if I were you. The damn stuff causes all my problems.

Glad you got it sorted, there were some, uh, interesting theories in this thread. The only difference you are feeling is the geometry of your arms and their relationship to the wheel. You're obviously sensitive to something being different, but its all you, not the machine. There is mechanically no difference in steering ratio or anything that could affect the steering system's operation by telescoping the steering wheel in/out, or tilt up/down.

This was solved a few posts back. Adjust your steering wheel position and get an alignment if the first thing isn't doing it for you

Yes that is what I meant about the checks. I read the whole thread. Just posting to bring attention to anyone else having similar issues and whether they are similar solutions. Thanks though!
