Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: On hot, humid days, the steering gets "sticky". by that i mean that turning the steering wheel becomes difficult because it "sticks" in one spot. it can happen at any time. small corrections of the steering become difficult. many times, because it sticks, you have to push harder on the wheel to make it turn, which, when it finally "unsticks", ends up causing too sharp of a turn. i did a search of the web using "z4 sticky steering" and found that others have experienced this same problem. *jb
