New issue.

For some reason, quite suddenly (as in i got off in the morning, came on in the arvo and its changed) i seem to have lost all counterlock, such as when you're about to go tank slapping. The rear end starts to go, i counter lock and the game doesn't seem to recognise it, i just plow into the wall. At the same time the wheel feels as though everythings gone ultra soft on the insides.

Curious whether anyone else has had this issue at any point whilst owning a Fanatec wheel.



All to do with new update, i spoke too soon.

Hey envy this taken from Sim HQ's review of the wheel.

After the first time using the PWTS on the PC, returning to the Xbox 360 resulted in a mis-calibrated wheel, about 15 degrees off-center. Fanatec has provided a fix for this: Turn the wheel on, put it in PC mode (hold the "Back" button for ~2 sec), center the wheel correctly, then simultaneously push the two lower left side buttons while pushing the Xbox Guide button and releasing all three at once. This resets the firmware calibration point. Worked like a charm, and there’s been no calibration problems since.

link for the above and the info above is from bottom of page 2

or Fanatec quick guide also has the info link below:
