I just drove my brothers MK4 golf 130 tdi and his steering seems to be much lighter than my leon. I have a 110 tdi.

Was there a noticeable difference between the 2 models, or is there something wrong with my steering?

Thanks

Andy

Sounds silly but check your tyre pressures and you steering fluid level. Also do you have wider wheels on than the golf?

My mk5 GT TDI golf steering was a lot lighter than my leon [even with standard wheels on my leon]

Thats prob not much help as I expect theres quite a bit of difference between mk4+5 but it was a lot lighter.

i just thought 2 threads within a few hours of each other was a bit odd :p

check the other thread though, as the leon steering is rather heavy
