Hi guys!
Steering feels pretty stiff on slow/very slow speeds.
is it just my car or 180 in general?
all good on higher speeds but slow speeds it feels a bit too stiff. Makes me wonder if power steering is adjusting with the speed or not. Shouldnt GTI 180 have adjusting one? (not sure what it's called)
any ideas?

The 180's steering is more responsive at higher rpms and feels heavy at lower rpms, its designed this way.

Ohh, so its meant to be that stiff on low rpms?
I mean one doesn't smoothly roll around on a parking lot one-handed on low rpms.
That stiff, is this normal?
Btw, what do you think if I go from 205 wide tires to 215, will it feel even stiffer with only 10mm added wideness?
