This was a question i asked Jaime when he was on holiday....so not suprised he didnt reply.

And i thought id ask it here as it might be of interest to others.

Jaime, is it possible with a tech2 to lighten the power steering?

My meega is a bit heavy steering wise, compared to my veccies....on low speed or no speed and turning around etc.....i know the veccies are lighter but just wondered if the power steering can be reprogrammed??

I remember Tunnie in that thread saying the power steering was quite a bit diff between his and his dads

Is it possible??

Cheers

One day someone is going to ask a question i know the answer to Have you got one on sport TD

[TheBoy]

On the V6 models, which have the servotronic speed sensitive steering, there are 3 different levels of 'lightness'

Presumably not on the 4 pots then?

I thought all Omegas had it....

[TheBoy]

afaik, only v6 had the servotronic speed sensitive steering...   ...didn't think the 2.0 had it, no idea about 2.2

Do you have 'ZF' logo on reservoir bottle cap?

Yep got that......is that a good sign then?

[TheBoy]

you got a cheapo tech2? can it communicate with steering?

I posted this while you were away, but i think the 2.2's must have it as well.

My steering feels a lot lighter compared to my dads. Both 2.2's...

thinner, harder, over-inflated tyres?

[tunnie]

it feels a lot 'tigher' & 'heavier'

I generally notice it when moving cars on the driveway, I had to pop out, and his car was bloking mine in as usual. So moved them around, my dads feels a lot heavier at slow speeds.

Tyre pressures around the same, maybe a couple of Psi out but not much...

[TheBoy]

have you checked the pressures lately? has he?

[tunnie]

i'll have to check... i have let my tyres go down before and its not affected the steering.

[TheBoy]

Theres only one way we are going to find out if the 2.2's steering can be adjusted via Tech2....
