    Erm, Marc I don't fully know where are you getting this info but as a Moza user I can confirm Moza has autoadjustment on basically every modern racing sim, with the exception of the original AMS. In sims like Raceroom and Rennsport it basically takes over the Moza software and adjusts the steering ratio in there, but in sims like ams2, rf2, acc and iracing if you set the wheel up to 900 degrees it automatically adjusts it to whatever the car has..

    OK, I guess their own customer support people don't know how their wheels work. This is what MOZA sent me via their official:

    Currently, only Le Mans Ultimate (LMU) supports automatic steering rotation adjustment with MOZA wheelbases. This is achieved through a two-way integration, where the game accesses our steering angle API to dynamically adjust the rotation based on the in-game vehicle.

    For other titles like iRacing, AMS 2, and rFactor 2, you may need to manually adjust the steering angle in MOZA Pit House or within the game settings. We are always working on improving compatibility and appreciate your feedback.
    Perhaps you or @Stepy could reach out and educate them about their own products. The easiest way to clarify this would be to have a rotation setting in the drivers/Pit House called "Automatic" or some such, as is the case with other manufacturers.

    I don't know who works at costumer support but thats a weird response, I've always set the steering wheel rotation to 900deg and let the software do the rest, and I've owned Moza since 2022..

    Yep leave it at 900° and away you go no need to change anything for any game.

    There is an actual setting like this in pithouse, it's called synchronous
    MOZA Pit House Force Feedback Guide - A Complete FFB Settings Guide - MOZA Racing | Global
    its with the wheel rotation settings.

    At least it explains why i was so confused with your initial statement :)

    I'm glad to hear it works, even if the company reps do not know it!!

    I disagree. "Inertia" should be used to simulate a heavier steering wheel if you use a very light wheel. But not for all wheels because that also has disadvantages. The wheel will become very sluggish and will no longer react quickly. Moza now recommends simply increasing the "Inertia" value extremely for all wheels, but in my opinion that is the wrong way to go. In my opinion the vibrations are due to technical reasons. An R21 (I drive one myself) will not cause any problems with vibrations. But an R5 or R9 will cause extreme vibrations. I had the opportunity to test an R9 R12 and an R21. The steering axis of an R5 R9 or even an R12 runs unevenly and not smoothly and noticeable notches and resistance arise. Incidentally, this can also be felt on other bases; my old Fanatec Podium dd1 also had this problem. In my opinion, this is what causes the vibrations. It may sound a bit harsh but for me there are only R21 and R16 (with some restrictions the R12) that I would buy from Moza. I would not recommend anything below that.
