Anyone know a good power steering specialist? The (ZF?) Servotronic steering on my BMW 7 has gone wonky, and the dealer is entering the headscratching phase of things (i.e. lots of time and money with no result). I *so* want some steering with feel back, rather than the over-assisted american style system I seem to be saddled with since the fault developed. Fanks

Dave, thanks for the feedback. I e-mailed JayGee, and one of their guys phoned me back suggesting I simply unplug the speed signal that feeds the steering box. Voila, minimum power assistance at all times, which is fine by me. Much cheaper than throwing money at my local BMW stealer.
