No servotronic here (X-drive) and the steering is everything but heavy! You guys must be used to over-assisted steering if you think non-servotronic feels 'heavy'...
Remember you can't have any steering feel at all if it's over-assisted!
As for my X1: not bad feedback at all (as hoped, i did switch to x-drive at the last moment just after reading that it had the hydrolic steering), this morning on a damp mountain road outside Salzburg I could actually feel the 4wd in the front wheels just barely starting to work (it was just a tiny tiny bit since I'm still completely babying the car and going quite slow because it's only 1 day and 200 km old
).
