EPS Servotronic problem

rifle2000 · 06-09-2020, 03:27 AM

Hi everyone!

I recently become owner of F30 328i.
I know from previous owner that steering rack was replaced due to failure. From what I read it should change steering servo force depended of mode you driving in but I don't feel any of that. I don't have any errors in ISTA in EPS and everything seems fine. Does anyone had this behaviour? I coded EPS just in case something was wrong with coding but behaviour is the same. Since there are no errors I don't know where to look. I read about FSC coding but that is area where I have no experience. Any advice? Is it possible that variable steering force is somehow disabled? Thanks in advance.

Yes, it is possible to deactivate the tight steering under Sport mode settings if you have this button (Not all Cars have it).

I have and I have enabled suspension and drive under sport mode but still no difference in steering changing modes. Additional steering feels bit heavy to me overall.
