Hello,

I have just started driving a 2009 Mini Cooper, after years of driving a Mitsubishi Mirage. I drive with some hand controls, i.e. a break/accelerator control and a bracket on my steering wheel, leaving me with one hand for steering.

Finding the Mini offers fantastic power steering assistance in car parks, which makes a huge difference steering with one arm, however as I speed up the assistance drops off and I am getting an extremely painful shoulder.

Is it possible to increase the amount of power steering assistance by changing some settings that relate to speed sensitivity? In other words to give me a bit more power steering assistance once driving at regular speeds?

Cheers, Michael
