Default Does anyone know if the power assist in the S4 steering can be adjusted
to make the steering heavier? I really prefer to have a heavy steering feel because it makes the car more communicative, especially at high speeds. The current steering feel is okay but a bit on the light side. Light steering is for whimps who need it for parallel parking. Heavy is better.

Thanks

Doesn't the power assist drop to nearly zero at high speed?

All A3's come with servotronic steering, right? My steering feels so light at higher speeds..
