    funny steering

    can anyone comment on the steering of the jazz?

    I can't really explain it, but when turning corners sometimes, it feels like the steering wheel is really light and turns too much for the corner.

    Yeah but it doesn't work anywhere near as good as what they make out in that link.

    The steering (or the microprocessor) is all over the place and seems to have a bit of a delayed reaction I rekon

    There's gotta be a way to fool it or disable it completely?

    the steering is too light at times...

    it also seems that on a corner exit, it doesnt centre by itself if you release grip on the steering wheel.

    Kit I think it just takes a bit of getting used to more than anything, though I have never had the problem of it not straightening up by itself after a corner.

    I did notice that the characteristics changed once the car was lowered and it took my a little bit to get used to it again.

    I have never had any scary moment whilst driving. Most of my interesting experiences have occured whilst parking/going very slow. But again, I am used to it now.

    I personally find the steering is only weird at low speeds. Power steering sure is nice for parking the car and so on.

    I reckon you should just drive faster around corners. Works for me
