Is there any difference in the steering from a petrol cmax to a diesel cmax i have heard diesel is harder to steer reason im asking my wife struggles with her wrists

I think the later models have variable assistance. See an earlier post
Otherwise see if you can get a test drive in both types at a dealer. i'm sure if you explain why they'll help if they think you are going to buy

The steering on both is electric powered,so they should be the same.Have you checked the tyre pressures to make sure they are not too low?

To get the lightest steering set it to 'Comfort' in the steering setup menu...

I have a petrol c max But have also had a diesal c maxas a courtesy car. I found no difference at all.

My wife has problems with her wrists as well (years on the keyboard etc...) but she finds the Cmax diesel we have a joy to drive.

My wife too finds our diesel easy to steer.She can even park properly now
