Right now, I have a concern about my steering wheel.

About three weeks ago I put HICAS front steering rack, aluminium steering bushing, and new polyurethane steering rack bushings in my car. First 2 days, the car handling was like go-cart. Then I began to get some lag in steering input.

So everytime before I drove, I turned steering wheel lock to lock 5 to 10 times to bleed air off PS system. Doing this got rid of the lag or reduced it a lot but the lag come back after 10 minutes of driving.

I installed HICAS rack on my car because people on this forum said HICAS would get rid of the lag in steering input. Now I still find lag in steering input.

I really want to get rid of free play on my steering wheel and get that go-cart feel back. What should I do? Do you or anyone know what is going on?
