Chambers Posted January 28, 2012 Share Posted January 28, 2012 Ive just moved my car for the first time in about 6 months after time driving a modern car. Im not sure if it was me not being used to it or the sterring beeing extremely heavy. Is there anything that should be lubed to help this?Obviously it was only very low speed so that obviously had something to do with it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smithy Posted January 28, 2012 Share Posted January 28, 2012 Bit of air in the tyres, I bet. I thought I'd gone weak shifting mine recently (and of course I hadn't). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fizzy Posted January 28, 2012 Share Posted January 28, 2012 im the other way round, driving my spit 99% of the time im in a car, that odd time i have to drive a modern i start manhandling the steering wheel and nearly bin it because its so easy to turn. ??) brakes aswell, im used to putting some effort on the pedal, when i get in a modern i nearly give myself whiplash.

black6osprey Posted January 28, 2012 Share Posted January 28, 2012 After driving my GT6 I'm all over the road when I get back in my daily driver it feels like the steering wheels not connected. I feel like Maggie off the intro to the Simpsons:P. I think all non assisted steering is a bit heavy from stationary (unless its a Lotus Elise or something similarly lightweight) but should feel much better once your going though.

Drove dad's Toyota Aygo for the first time this year last week, just gently pushed the brakes at the end of our road and did a full of emergency stop! ??)
