Does any one know if it is possible to rerofit the lighter steering option to my 2015 Macan SD. It is an option when you purchase a new Macan. The current steering weight is fine but I would prefer the weight as on my Golf GT.

Just had my Macan retro-fitted with Power Steering Plus after a year of heaving 2 tons around at low speed in car parks etc; the difference is immediately noticeable and definitely enhances the driving experience. The transition from slow to faster speeds is imperceptible, highly recommended.
Price my OPC charged fully fitted £241.00

Totally agree - makes a huge difference at slow/manoeuvring speeds.

However it's also a bit of a marmite subject this one :lol:

found it great when on 20", have now changed to original 18" and feels a bit light but could due to new tyres.

Interesting, I have it on my car, it’s on 21” & it feels fine, but changing over to my new ( to me ) 18” with winter tyres on so will report back. Mind you my Skoda vRS always felt lighter on the winter tyres which were 17” instead of the 18” standard.
