Steering dampener shock.
 
Do they make a steering shock for these cars? & does anyone have one?

Thanks!

The only thing I see on the page is a vibration reducer. I was taliking along the lines of a shock to help with bump steer.

Thanks Rick.

If I read this correctly :JEKYLHYDE I think there may be a problem that's best cured by addressing it, rather than covering it up with a shock :)

Bump steer can be caused by many things, so rather than guess I'd suggest getting in touch with Reg and getting to the root of the problem!

You shouldn't be experiencing bump steer with an unbent, properly assembled and aligned BMW front suspension.

My two cents!

Tom

I DO want to bring it in for an inspection & alignment, if it is needed. I am new to this type of vehicle & it may be reacting normally. I am not so sure it is bumpsteer I am feeling, or just the responsivness of the system.
Thanks for the advice Tom!
