Hello,
So I've recently changed my Myvi's front tyres and the steering wheel felt loose after that. Went and did alignment and it's back to normal stiffness.
However, my friend tried driving my car before and he asked why is the steering wheel stiff compared to his own Myvi.
I've also driven Estima, Camry and BMW 5 series (all several thousand kilometres driven, not test drive) before and never noticed the difference in steering wheel stiffness, so I can assume all of them had similar stiffness.
May I know how stiff or loose are steering wheels suppose to be? Should I advise my friend that maybe his car's steering wheel is suppose to be stiffer?
Please advise. Thank you.
Is your Perodua Myvi comes with the EPS? Electronic Power steering or the older model. To be the right adjustment, it should have some grip for control of handle of the car. It shouldn't be too loose at there might be a few things to look about. So I've recently changed my Myvi's front tyres and the steering wheel felt loose after that.

Try checking on a few things:
1) Check if the steering rack is tighten properly.
2) Check the fluid level of the power steering or the thickness of the oil, and ask yourself, have you change it before?
