What's the deal with sport, normal and easy steering options?
So you have the option of choosing between these options on the Mustang. I haven't tried the easy one, and I feel no difference between normal and sport. Does this actually do anything?
And, are you just trying the modes sitting still or at low speed?
There are quite a few variables involved in how the modes work compared to how the car is being driven.
I've driven normal and sport quite a bit. I figured sport would be a little tougher/stiffer making turns, but I feel no difference.
In Advance Track Sport Mode (which gets turned on everytime I start the car...) it defaults to sport mode. Don't think I have tried the other ones, supposed to give the most feedback and be the most firm
Non performance package V6 cars don't have a very aggressive sport mode setting so it is not unusual that it doesn't feel much stiffer than standard mode.
I mostly used Sport (V6 manual), and fairly recently changed to mostly Normal after waffling between them for a while - after another thread on this lol. Sport was my natural first choice because that's how I drive. I do notice a difference, especially when stepping on the gas when apexing a curve. The Sport requires noticeably less steering input than Normal. In fact, you gotta be careful with this with this car (MCA, non-PP), makes it really easy to oversteer if you've been in Normal for a while. Much less "prob" going from Sport to Normal. I should have said that I do mostly (very small) city driving. [Geez...just can't type or get a thought out today...]
