During some practice races my g29 started to act strange after a race restart. It was as if the wheel was out of calibration. After restarting the game, restarting the ps4, rebuilding the database etc. it was still out of calibration. I had to turn the wheel about 30 deg to the right to maintain a straight line. Tried a few other games and they worked fine. Back to ACC. This time I loaded a different setup and everything worked fine. Loaded the old setup and the problem occurred again. Somehow the setup became corrupt and was causing the wheel to become out of alignment. I verified all of the settings in the setup were not out of whack. Just wanted to give everyone a heads up. Cheers

Interesting, thanks for letting us know

Yeah I have been experienced the same multiple times. I was looking for someone to report it online but you are the first one that did. It seems that the setups can become corrupted for whatever reason.

Moreover, I have lost all my setups after finishing one season of championship mode yesterday. I don't know what happened. After I finished the season, I got an error message, and then the dreaded blue screen, restarted game and after that even my wheel settings were gone, setups lost. Luckily my driver stats remained intact. But it's so frustrating to lose all the setups I have developped for nearly 2 months. Now I have to start over. Sigh...
 
I've also had this happen a few times.

I can't think it's anything more than coincidence, but it's only happened on set ups I've copied from YT videos, used without issue, then subsequently modified tyre pressures... the bug happens after changing tyre pressures. It's still there if I re-boot the game/PS4 and try ot use that set up again, but goes away if I switch to another set up, or to aggressive preset.
 
I got this last night. I was using the safe setup with tyre pressure changes. A couple of race restarts didn't work so I reloaded the setup, adjusted the pressures again, and it was back to normal. Perhaps fiddling with tyre pressure might mean you don't have to bin the setup completely.
 
Had this kinda effect too, it was as if the steering assist was on though I've never used it, so don't know how that feels, but the wheel would fight against the way i wanted too go and steering into corners for me and the ffb was all messed up, could be somethings causing issues with my drivehub when i pause the game but doesn't do it all the time. Using a dfp gt with drivehub and t-3pa pedals
