Does anyone else have an issue keeping their cu2 in a straight line on the highway??
Its like I always have to make micro adjustments on my steering wheel to keep my tsx straight in the lane I'm in. The alignment is ok but its like it's just "wondering" when it comes to highway driving.
It drives perfect in all other conditions. I'm blaming the electronic steering.
Anyone experience this?

 

Yeah it was a major complaint with this car and the EPS. I hate it

 

I think it's a non issue in my 2013. I think they updated the ECU to correct this, probably 2011+?

 

revised steering system 11+ but I don't know what they changed.

 

Same issue but in all driving. I have a 11.Maybe I need an alignment though.

 

Same issue, mine's an '11. I complained to no avail.

 

Its not something that can be fixed, It's just a problem with the crap EPS system in this car.

 

I don't really notice it much tbh.. 2013 here

 

Yeah but how much highway driving do you do ?

 

not much.. not much driving at all actually approaching 12k kilometers and it's almost been a year hahah

 

well then obviously you're not gonna notice the annoying steering if you don't drive on the highway lol

 

 

I wonder if an adjustment in camber or caster would remedy this. I don't think caster is even adjustable anyway.
Is there any work around for this annoying problem?
I don't think Acura gives a crap about fixing it. I learned that when they had that auto transmission defect mess in the TL/CL.

 

Running higher tire pressure helps a bit.
There are no workarounds really and the "fix" is to buy an 11+ but like the others say even their 11+ cars do it..

If your toe is off it causes the car to follow the road, maybe you need an alignment also.

On my car it's not so bad after the new tires and higher PSI (it was really bad on stock tires) But on even slightly windy days, like yesterday, I was struggling to keep the car straight. really annoying.

 

Im going to try a higher psi. What psi do you use?

I guess the better question is, what causes this to happen? I know its probably the EPS but how? What exactly is happening to make the car wonder??

 

a dumb ecu

 

I run mine at like 37 cold

This and well... EPS just sucks in general... Hydraulic Power steering is the best.

The boost on the steering is also WAY to high on these cars.

 

I found that if I don't make minute adjustments the car just kind of bobs back and forth and generally just stays in the lane. But yea it's crap and above 110 it's a bit scary, and about the worst car to be DUI in

 

above 110.. lol?
