steering wheel

A steering wheel (also called a driving wheel (UK), a hand wheel, or simply wheel) is a type of steering control in vehicles.
Steering wheels are used in most modern land vehicles, including all mass-production automobiles, buses, light and heavy trucks, as well as tractors. The steering wheel is the part of the steering system that is manipulated by the driver; the rest of the steering system responds to such driver inputs. This can be through direct mechanical contact as in recirculating ball or rack and pinion steering gears, without or with the assistance of hydraulic power steering, HPS, or as in some modern production cars with the assistance of computer-controlled motors, known as electric power steering.

    Please put your hands on the steering wheel

    Hi, Since getting my mg4, when on the motorway and the blue lines engage to keep the car within the lanes, I'm plagued with minutely warnings saying I'm not holding the steering wheel. When pressing harder nothing happens and eventually it beeps at me with red warnings. I'm on the latest R33...

    MG4 Steering Wheel Shortcuts for HVAC and Regen?

    Yes - another MG4 review video! I found this one particularly interesting as I’ve seen criticism of the HVAC and Regen controls being buried in the infotainment menu. Here, he uses the steering wheel to manage both areas… Does anyone also do this on their car?

    Steering wheel sticking

    Just picked up my new MG 4 Se and noticed pretty quickly that the steering wheel sticks or slightly locks when I’m turning the steering wheel slightly? Not sure if this is something that needs to be looked at or if it’s something I can change in the cars settings? Has anyone else had anything...

    "click" sound from the steering wheel

    I have MG ZS Trophy, 1-month-old in 2.000 miles. There is a click sound coming from the steering wheel when turning right/left at low speeds. The weird part is; that it doesn't happen all the time so I am not sure how I can explain this if I take the car to the service. Do you think this could...

    Navigation on screen behind steering wheel

    Last week my MG ZS EV was delivered at my work. It rolled off a trailer and I got no explanation of how the menu's work. Is there a possibility to get the navigation on the screen behind the wheel in stead of on the screen in the middle of the car? And how can I do this?

    Steering wheel voice?

    I’ve had a look but didn’t see it on the thread, so I had another test drive the other day (I’ve ordered a ZS trophy) I don’t know what car i was driving, but thought it would have been the trophy Ismart, or whatever you’d like to call it, so as I was driving along, I pressed the steering wheel...

    Movement in steering wheel tilt mechanism

    I have noticed the steering wheel tilt mechanism feels slightly loose when locked in position and it still moves/clicks slightly up and down. My local MG service centre took a look and said this is normal. Has anyone else noticed this? and if so can it be fixed. Thanks
