Steering wheel mode

[zsameer]

I believe you have to hit the "OK" button when the screen prompts you, to lock in a particular setting.

I might be wrong, but try it. I hit "OK", and it stays where I put it.

Tried hitting the OK after switching but still wont keep. Its really weird that for some it stays and for some it does not. Great quality and consistency Ford :doh:

Maybe you have to hit & hold the switch? I tend to do that all the time.

Hell, has anyone read the damn manual? I sure as hell haven't.

It looks like Premium cars, with selectable driving modes, do not keep the steering setting. Evidently the EPAS interacts with the driving modes somehow, so it defaults to normal when you change driving modes.

And because the base cars don't have the driving modes, the steering setting stays where you put it.

That's just my take from reading the manual on-line.

Makes sense to me. I have a base car and it stays in Sport.

There is an update available on the 2018s with the 401A package that will allow the steering mode to stay where you set it. I just had it done on mine.

I sometimes get a message that the Steering Wheel Adjustment Mode isn't available to change. Anyone have an idea about this?

Thanks.

Normal or Sport most of the time. Only if I'm driving at slower speeds in the city doing a lot of turns do I move to Comfort. Sport on the Highway is nice because it doesn't seem as darty.

This evening I found that I can switch Steering modes only when I am in NORMAL Mode. I could swear that I was able to change it in other modes. But perhaps, I am blinded by the beauty of my Ceramic Coated Velocity Blue Beast!

Are you in Sport+ or Track? The steering defaults to Sport in those modes and can't be changed.

I am finding I can only switch steering when in Normal drive mode.

That's just my take from reading the manual on-line.

On my 15 and 17 premium cars, the steering mode adjustable only in normal drive mode (where the steering was locked to the drive mode type), and for example, if you put the car in normal, and then change steering to sport, and cycle your engine, next time the steering is still in sport (only drive mode reverse back to normal on engine cycle).

But if you clicked the drive mode and went to different settings, and then turn off your engine, at next cycle when mode defaults back to normal, the steering also reversed back to normal as the normal drive mode has normal steering defaulted.

If you never touched the drive mode and kept that in normal, and then put the steering in sport, turning engine on/off should keep the steering in sport.

In my 19, i did a my mode, where i put exhaust to track and steering to sport, and gauge in normal, and saved to my mode. When i start my car, i click drive mode twice to my mode and it will set steering and exhaust to the setting I want.

Indeed. That's intended behaviour. In other words, it's not a bug, it's a feature.
I agree it's an odd restriction, but it is what it is.

 

[bjblackout]

When you change the driving mode does it automatically change your steering also??

 

[Vlad Soare]

Yes. Each drive mode has its own steering mode.
