Evening all

Anyone have PSP retrofitted? How much was it, and do you think it was worth it, please?

Cheers

Mark

Had it on my 2016 GTS (at PDI.....foc.....long story 😉)

Did not have it in my first 2014 SD, didn’t miss it.

Probably wouldn’t pay £300 odd for it.....

I have it but don’t really notice it at all, could probably live without.

a must for tight parking, and makes daily driving nicer.

Daily driving on twisting rural roads seems to be a little heavy on the hands - do you think it helps in the 30-40mph range? I see some comment that it has no effect over 30.

Correct, it only gives assistance at low / manoeuvring speeds. No assistance once you’re up and running (not sure if it’s 30 mph but quite probably)

This mod is not 'necessary', or a 'must', unless the driver has a disability. Slow speed manoeuvring, parking etc is fine with the standard setting. PSP is popular in the US, but they like ultra light steering over there for some strange reason. They also like Donald Trump.
