I've got v12 and had been thinking about upgrading to v13 because of the firming of active steering at slower speeds.? Have you noticed the same firming in v14?

Yeah... I was reading the posts and couldn't wait to find out if there is a difference on mine...
But... I've been driving Sebring Convertibles on Hawaii in the last three weeks and other rental cars in California...
To be honest: I can't tell! I don't know if it's different, since I have forgotten how it felt before!
Sorry...

That's something they are still working on, like the MP3 playback... (what even the cheapest japs cars can do...
).
