Yeah... steering only changes in non M.
Non M are electric servo.
M is hydraulic

Are you sure???cuz I coulda swore that the dealer was right about that one. Cuz the steering even feels stiffer with sport button on. I definately noticed a change in the feel with the sport button on. It's possible the the hydrolic pressure is increased with sport button on and thus stiffer steering. Any BMW tech out there that can help?

I suppose its also a possiblity that the dealer tod me it would be stiffer and thus I imagined it to be...I haven't done any 140+ mph turns and bumps since I got back, and I don't think I'll test it soon either...but I think my memory is ok on this one.

Yeah...I really only noticed it when hauling ass over bumps and turns on the autobahn...it can feel loose over that stuff if you don't have the sport mode on...at least thats the way I remember it feeling.
