Anyone successfully disabled servotronic?

Looking to disable Servotronic, the steering just feels way too light to me.
I have a '14 xDrive28i

I have the 14 s28i with electric steering, and wow was it light, and car also swayed really bad at high speed.

I put BMS 12mm spacers on front only, and X1 now has proper firm steering, and no sway.

Most people with that xdrive and no servotronic complain about hard steering.

So the spacers is your lucky tip.

12mm is smallest that will fit right so that's what I put.

Some put 15mm but my world is less is more.

Tuning.....
