Anyone tried the Torque Steering Compensation?

Yesterday, while browsing through my modules in NCS, I saw a setting in EPS (Electric Power Steering) which read something like "TRQ_STEER_COMP" (not totally sure how it was written, but certain I got the meaning). It was nicht_aktiv and so I set it to aktiv.

I didn't really notice a difference, but since I drive an automatic I may have never had real torque steer.

So anyone interested to try it? It would be helpful for others if we also posted the assembly number of the EPS firmware, as the program may have changed over the years.

EPS ZB.: 6779547

Oh cool! Next time I connect, I will see if I have that setting in my base model. I didn't see it in the retrofit options. I've never really noticed much torque steer, but I am so used to FWD cars.
