Like you have to do a lot more strenght to turn to the feft side on speeds above 100km/h.
BMW told me that is a construction defect, and now i can choose a new car and wait about 3 months for it, or repair this one. Now a realy don't know what to do.
hmm that steering-wheel issue, could you explain that a bit more? is it only when you turn left and not right? Is the problem always there at above 100km/h or does it only happen once in a while randomly?

I've had a few occasions where after driving on highway for a long time, especially after driving dead straight for a long while and then coming into a slight bend, it has felt like the steeringwheel has locked up.

Really scary feeling, for a millisecond it feels like the anti-theft-locking-thingie has engaged and I have to force the steeringwheel a bit in order to turn.
