I'm coming up on one week of ownership with my A/C and I'm loving it so far. The one thing I'd really like to tweak (if possible) is to reduce the amount of power steering assistance the car has. I'd prefer that the wheel took more effort to turn and didn't feel so light. Is there a way to change the amount of steering assist? I know on my last car (a VW GTI) the steering assist could be changed via the computer interface. Is there a similar way to tweak this car?

Good to know. An underdrive pulley also reduces air conditioning output as well, doesn't it?

Hi, just wondering if you ever did anything about you're steering? I also don't like the "light steering" feel either, please let me know.
