Why is the steering in my BMW 8 Series feeling stiff?

I've noticed that the steering in my BMW 8 Series has been feeling stiff lately. It's making it difficult to turn corners smoothly. What could be causing this issue and is there anything I can do to fix it?

One possible reason for the stiff steering could be low power steering fluid. Check the level and add more if necessary. You can also try turning the wheel lock to lock a few times to help loosen it up.

Another reason could be a worn out steering gear or rack and pinion. This will require professional inspection and potentially replacement. It's important to address this issue as it can affect the handling and safety of your vehicle.
