Woohoo!

So as not to resurrect an old thread, here's a link:
My car is hard to steer in tight turns

I took my car in for Inspection 2 and told them about the steering issue. They called and said that they're going to replace the unit and all I have to pay is the $50 CPO deductible.

Now I'm ready to hit the mountains and the track again!

I had mine replaced for the same issue on my old 540 and it only had 25k miles!

Wonder what this costs without CPO. Im having the opposite problem...at slow parking lot speeds, once in a while the power assist seems to completely go away when making a quick tight turn. Comes back in a second or two, but what worries me is the problem going beyond a simple pump and more the whole servotronic M button thing.
