I found it on some mk5 forum but I dont know if it can be apply on mk6.
- Yes you can change the steering assist from soft to hard, spread out over 7 adjustments, 0 to 6 (although I had always thought it was just 5 adjustments) 0 or 1 is tight, and 5 or 6 is loose, or the most assist.
I was going to finish this up, but my memory is not what it once was.
I'll add to this later, when I double check with my lap top.
(module 44 steering I believe)
Someone else will chime in if I don't get back to this.
I dug it out of my trunk...
Controller 44, Steering Assist, Adaptation, channel 1.
You will probably see a value between 2 and 5, or more likely it will be set to 3. Very stiff steering = 1, and a very light feel would = 5. These are changeable, so try it out and see how you like it.
(mine was 3, I went to 2, and drove it for two days, then I decided I liked 3 better)
Im gonna give it a try later. From what I heard, the power steering get more stiff with higher speed, simple % relative to speed and from what I heard, the power steering is totally off at about 65mph for better steering feeling. What u guys dont like is probably the steering wheel stiffness at low speed. I also heard that the power steering is the same as BMW use, probably just not set the same.
Servotronic
Servotronic offers true speed-dependent power steering, in which the amount of servo assist depends on road speed, and thus provides even more comfort for the driver. The amount of power assist is greatest at low speeds, for example when parking the car. At higher speeds, an electronic sensing system gradually reduces the level of power assist. In this way, the driver can control the car even more precisely than with conventional power steering. A number of automakers use Servotronic, including Audi, General Motors, BMW, Volkswagen, Volvo, SEAT and Porsche. Servotronic is a trademark of AM General Corp
I could be totally wrong on all the lines, anyone know more about it?
thx
