Hi,
This is my very first time on this forum so apologies if I posted in the wrong area.
I purchased an Audi A3 as my very first car. I also have a BMW 5 series sitting on my drive (2015) which I will only be able to insure after a years no claims.
My question is about the power steering of the two vehicles:
When turning the A3’s steering wheel it’s smooth as butter however whenever I turn the BMW’s steering wheel it feels incredibly hard... in a way I feel like I will not enjoy driving the BMW because of this after driving the Audi.
Could someone explain why is this? Preferably if you’ve owned both brands in the past. Is it to do with the size of the vehicles or are Audi’s just better engineered ?(no bias please haha)
Note both vehicles have had services done regularly. No faults at all.
Thanks to all who reply.
