Steering Question

Hi Guys,


quick question.
On the C63s Sedan, the steering will be direct drive i.e. mechanically connected directly from steering wheel to steering rack, just electrically power assisted?

Yes. It's identical to what traditional steering is but with electronic assist instead of hydraulic.

Thought so.My 2015 C63s went in the dealer for a faulty engine mount change. when it came back the steering was loose, i.e the steering wheel would move freely say between 11:55 and 12:05 on a clock. They took it back and returned it saying they "had not calibrated it in the software after a software update..."
