I have an 05 G coupe stock 19 inch rims with 43k miles on it..For some reason turning the steering wheel seems hard to me when compared to other cars such as a G37, lexus IS350, and toyota camry.

*I checked my power steering and it might need to get a power steering flush, my mechanic said that it was 50% clean and 50% dirty....
*My belts according to Infiniti are also starting to crack.

4 Questions
1.Why is my steering so hard?

2.Does a power steering flush really improve anything?

3.Do i need to get new belts?

4. Is there anything that i can do to soften the steering wheel or is it just the way the car was built?

 

Does a power steering flush provide any benefits other than just putting in new oil?

*I read some where that a person tracked their car and felt a difference in steering is this true?

 

noway is your car built like that your steering wheel is supposed to be loose but firm and i mean that by easy to turn my power steering pump has be broken since i bought the damn car and that was back in 06' find out if something is wrong with your power steering pump bc it becomes a b**** to turn if you dont take care of it

 

coming from a tahoe my car was not so much hard to turn but the return of the steering wheel was something to ponder. Its so stiff, my girl said that she almost ran up on the curb expecting the steering wheel to return. i chalked it up as, being a sports car and wide tires, idk!

 

Hey, you are going to get beat for starting to like in kind threads!

 

I had the same thing a few weeks ago, there was no turn delete coming from the steering wheels, especially when making a turn, I felt the stiffness settle in right away. My mechanic right away found the steering angle sensor wasn't swiveling properly, they replaced it for $120. Then my vdc/slip lights were on, the dealership had to reprogram the sensor, and everything works excellent now...

 

Is the steering angle sensor for active rear steering only?

 

Same here, I feel stiffness. Where can I change steering oil?

 

I have seen power steering coolers on some of the newer models. I think that the power steering fluid can start to boil on our cars. Changing fluid is a good thing to keep it running proper.

 

What the ****? I need to go find your english teachers because they're clearly doing something wrong. Wow...
