CSL DD With Boost-Rotation Seems Stiffer

Hi,

Have had my CSL DD for a little more than a year, and have noticed the past 2 sessions that the rotation left and right seems to be "stiffer" Is there any maintenance that I should be doing? Has anyone else experienced this and could point me to a fix.

Feels like it needs lubrication, but I don't know if you are supposed to lubricate and where you would even

apply lubrication.

I primarily play Race Room and AC , symptoms are in both titles .

When unit is powered off feels normal.

I primarily use McLaren GT3 V2 wheel.

Typical usage is 2-3hrs per day .

Any insight appreciated.

Thnks

    If the unit looks normal when turned off, you don't need to lube anything.

    Lubrication serves to reduce friction. When the wheelbase is off, there are no electrical forces acting on the motor, and this is the right time to evaluate the presence of abnormal mechanical friction.

    So what you hear is electrical input.

    It could be electromagnetic interference, or more likely you've changed the steering wheel settings without realizing it.
