...but steering on the motorway of the F10 needs constant corrections and drives me nuts! On B road, town etc the steering is great (much heavier than my previous car but this seems to be accepted as a good thing). Just wish the car was more relaxing on motorways - will play with tyre pressures and see if that makes any difference.
Certainly check the tyre pressures.

I don't think the need for constant corrections is the norm on these cars. I have driven a few, all included motorway driving and none had any need for correction.

My car (F11) is at 8k miles, runs on 18" wheels and it drives with perfect precision. Not influenced by road ruts or cambers on the motorway.

BTW, what wheel size and tyre brand?
