I used to have a 2009 4.6 and when you did push start you could hear the steering wheel unlocking. With my 2012 r spec I do not get that sound. With my 2009 if you turned the wheel with car off you could feel the wheel lock. My 2012 does not do that. Did the r spec just not have this option?

Any takers? Could any of you r type owners help me out. With the car off and ignition off does your wheel lock if you turn the wheel. It could be because of the electric steering they dropped the steering wheel lock but I also thought the 4.6 has electric steering but I could be wrong. Any help would be great. I'm loving my new 2012 and this is the only thing that bothers me.

R-spec has electro-hydraulic power steering. There's no belt-driven pump. Maybe thats why there's no steering lock? My '14 will barely move when shutdown.
