[QUOTE="ALBundy, post: 329047, member: 15"] Haiyo...dunno which so called sifu told you that. Anyway, the Mini IS NOT equipped with active steering and hence the steering ratio always remains the same (think he is confused between servotronic and active steering!!). The new Mini has this system called Electric Power Steering (EPS or sometimes EPAS - Electric Power Assisted Steering) which in essence uses an electrical motor to assist the driver in steering the car instead of the traditional belt driven steering pump. Prior to this, BMW has the servotronic which is similar to EPS (except as explained earlier it uses a belt driven pump and utilizes an electromagnetic valve to control the amount of fluid flowing..brilliant!) :) The steering ratio REMAINS the same!
