All my friends with Benz without Parameter Steering (AS) said to me they love my Benz with PS. And, I will only buy a car with AS or its equivalence technology because I believe this is way to go. I am therefore very interested to know whether AS works well as it is intended.

I heard ( even from my E90 salesman ) about AS on the 5-series is pretty hard to adopt to. I received good comments from owners with AS on their E90. I must admit I found the Audi Servotronic very hard to get used to.

No means of picking words, I do not think Benz, Audi and BMW are bringing in this technology to interfere the driver. If it is a good technology that works well ( or not so well ) on a a particular car model, we should share the experience in details with the rest of group.
