How is the turning radius on 2nd gen tl-s? I dont know about you guys but mine has the turning radius of an 18 wheeler. After driving the bmw its steering feels almost usless. What can i do to make the steering more direct and turn sharper.

Btw. today i did a little comparison i hopped in the bimmer turned the wheels as far as they go and the bmw turns about 85 degrees right and left to the body, where as the tl only goes about 35-40. What can be done about this?

 

Nothing.

 

thats it? just....nothing? Can i adjust the steering ratios or something, theres has to be a way.

 

fsttyms1 is right. The double wishbone suspension prevents any tighter of a turn due to clearance, I believe. All Honda products with this suspension setup have a large turning radius.

 

seriously? 85 degrees? that's pushing your tires along the road sideways

 

nvm bimmers being able to turn at right angles..

why do u want to decrease the turning radius? do u do a lot of u-turns?

 

The bmw is also rear wheel drive, thusly there are no cv joints to flex, if you could turn your tl's wheels 85 degrees the cv joints would explode.

 

Drive the BMW? This is a front wheel drive car, it has it's limitations.

 

Nothing.
Adjust steering ratios you need to understand how steering works. Its not something you change out a gear and get something better. Also like Surrey said Its FWD. There are axles/CV joints up there. You cant push them to far or they stop working.
