I think you are right about the servotronic, particularly the free-play of the wheel when at speed. That described what I am feeling very well. So it may not be the VSS after all that was causing the odd feeling. As of now, though, I love the whole combined feel of the suspension and steering. As I get used to the steering, I like it more. Like getting used to a new car with a difference clutch catch point.
That's good to hear.

F30 steering in general is somewhat vague and on center/off center has too much play, but over all the standard steering and VSS are acceptable.
That one review really has me wondering what is going on as that guys comments made it sound like it was just broken.


No blue in the mineral then. Must just be a light anomaly.
Min gray is one of the colors I am considering.
I have to finalize my choices very soon.
