Hi, i have drove a few LCR which have heavy power steering? i have never drove one which doesnt feel slightly heavy.. is this normal?

i drive many cars everyday at work, cant find any problems with mine so just wondering does your steering feel slightly heavy. i wouldnt say its like too heavy or a struggle. far from it but it feels heavier than some cars.

you probably wouldnt notice unless you drive more than one car as you would just get used to the way it is.

LCR was noticeably heavier steering than the LC I had before - I'm pretty sure it uses a lower ratio rackas well as other suspension differences. IMO I prefer the LCR steering feel.:)

heavier = better feel in my opinion, some cars are so light these days i'ts like driving on ice. I did have a fiesta without power steering before the 225 so it wasn't gona be any worse. i like the handling apart from the split second delay on the body roll:drive2:

Yep my steering’s heavy, fairly sure its meant to be like that. I like it. :D Sportier cars quite often have weighted steering don’t they? :blink:
