Default Help PLZ - Steering Issues -

I recently picked up another ti (long story on this one and I'll be providing details, youtube vids, pics, etc..)...

OK... The steering had been tight, too tight. I replaced the power steering pump, belts, tensioner, etc.. It's better, but still feels kinda stiff, and at low speed cornering you have to manually pull the steering wheel back to center. I've had two other ti, and the steering on those did not react this way.

To me, it reminds me of how over tightening the free play adjustment on a 5 or 7 series feels. I have NO idea if there is any similar adjustment like this found on the 318ti rack and pinion assembly.

Anybody have a clue what's up with this?.
Or better, know of ANY adjustments that corrects for "return to center"?

Argh!! this one's got me buggin' I've search the all the net, found no clue for this rack on the 318ti.. dang it!!
