Steering feel?
Question for those of you that have driven the b9 S4. Do you feel like the steering has too much play? More play that normal for an audi S car? I ask because I actually work at a dealership and after driving it compared to our other cars, it just doesn't feel heavy and weighted enough in dynamic mode. Compared to other S models, the difference between comfort and dynamic just doesn't seem as drastic either.
I ask because I am contimplating getting one and currently drive a '15 S3. I understand the s3 is a smaller and more nimble car. But I still feel like the S4 just doesn't get as tight as it should in dynamic mode.
I've also taken one out with the dynamic steering. It felt maybe a bit tighter, but still not as I think it should feel.
I'm sure I would get used to it but would appreciate your opinions. Especially for those coming from other Audi models. Thanks.

I agree there isn't much difference between the driving modes but it feels significantly tight to me and I definitely don't feel any play. Are you sure you weren't feeling lane assist?

No, the car did not have lane assist. Do you have dynamic steering? I'm trying to see exactly what that does and if it makes the feel tighter or not.
