darn, I was planning to activate ALK later this month but just checked when I saw your deal. Not seeing any promotion here in the US. Furthermore I don't even see a place to enter in a discount code on the US store.

Hi,
I purchased this add-on many months ago and then it took many months before I was invoiced. I cannot tell any difference which makes me think it has not actually applied to the car. The dealership log into the connect website and say it is applied and not interested in looking any deeper.

Does anyone know if there is a way to determine if the option has been switched on in the car?
Thanks

No way of telling in PCM. You should feel a difference though - switching from Normal to Sport will be an instant tell tale (normally) as the steering will immediately stiffen (at any speed). Try that.

It was immediately noticeable when it was applied - parking speed steering was very noticeably lighter.

Mine went on by the next morning - was billed on the same day and the car beeped when I got in the next day with a notice to say "function applied"

Thank you for your replies. I thought that would be the case. The steering is the same as the day the car was delivered and never changes from being heavy.

Oh joy - now to convince the dealership that the update has not been applied. It may be easier to convince my brick wall.

Insist they run diagnostics to confirm the current specification of the car - if you have to, tell them that your Power Steering Plus is not working properly.

Exactly the same with me!

I cannot notice any difference whatsoever. Literally none. I will be asking the dealer to check when my car goes in to have the PCM replaced.
