2014 MGT, 27K, stock BBP suspension. Steering has been getting draggy, sticky, notchy and not centring properly. No indications of mechanical distress, no shakes at high speeds. Tires are worn out but, it really doesn't feel like a problem there. Moving the tires around and absolutely ensuring proper inflation made no change.
I plan to drop the struts out of their pockets and make sure the bearings are turning freely, even though there is no noise, etc. indicating a problem.
Next is ask Ford about reprogramming the rack. This can be done without resetting the ECM, correct? I returned to stock tune, no change, disconnected the battery for a few minutes, no change.
Worst case is replace the rack....which is a colossally expensive part where I am. Replacing a known-faulted part with another one doesn't necessarily suit me, either. The 302R Motorsport rack is a short rack from the looks of it and takes away comfort mode, which I like on long road trips.
Anybody got any ideas or info; I'm happy to hear it. I need this like a hole in the head right now.
