What is the update, did the dealer (re-program) fix the problem?

if you have the factory manual it tells you how to do it, and you don't "Have" to have a dealer do it.

Apparently it is in section 17-B-39 of the S2000 manual, though this is hearsay, as I don't have the manual.

However, if someone doses and it is there, it would be very helpfull if it were scanned and posted.

Buy a Helm's manual. How can you not have one and be on this board? Cheapest investment. It's a must have.

(BTW, why is this topic on this board )

Well, I went to the dealer and they reprogrammed my steering and roadtested the car (after).

The comment on the work order was 'steering good'.

I left the dealer with almost $100 less in my pockets only to discover that nothing had changed (the car still pulled to the right - more assist towards the right). I drove around the block and brought the car back. They only believed this was indeed the case when another mechanic tested the car and agreed with me. They scheduled a new appointment and after working on the car for two days (tech-line intensive) they have come to the conclusion that the module has to be changed. It's worth over $1,000 not including labor!!!

Ask me if I'm having a good time!!!
