[QUOTE="astroboy, post: 254289, member: 4527"] Meaning I drive too fast la... I heavily rely on my Rain-X all these yeas and I need to the speed for the Rain-X to work... :D Been using my E90 for local supermarket grocery trips in the evening and I find the car is rather difficult to handle compare to my old E36 which I own decades ago. Few possibilities: 1. The body is rather fat or wide to be exact to squeeze into supermarket parking bay, with an Innova and Fortuner next to u fighting for space. 2. The 225 size tyre has some what sacrifice the small turning radius of this rear wheel drive car. Making maneuvering in and out of parking lots difficult. 3. Steering is heavy when the car is slow. My missy is asking why when the car go slow, power steering not suppose to be lighter meh? I think she's refering to speed sensitive steering or the 325i active steering.. :D I guess u will be facing the same problem if you were driving a Ferrari for a local supermarket grocery trip la.. :D :D And those are the same reasons why the faster your drive your E90, the nicer and easier the feel is.. :D Probably the same when u riding a superbike and got stuck in the KL traffic with engine heat raising from between your legs onto your face.. :D Not a nice feeling hah!
