i have noticed this same phenomenon on a few different occasions. it seems to come and go. i can't remember when i first noticed it (i'm @ 26,000 miles now) but it was just as described, a brief "sticky spot" in the steering when moving from dead straight. it went away after the first time and i've noticed it occasionally since, most recently on a 500 mile round-trip over the weekend. however i did NOT experience it on a 1,500 mile round-trip 3 weeks ago.
fwiw i rotate my tires every 5k miles, still on the original pirelli cinturatos. maybe it's a product of the rotation and having different tires in different spots (front-to-back only)? that would account for it coming and going...
thought i would bump this back up... i just repeated the same 500 mile round-trip that i did over thanksgiving (where i was having the "sticky" steering issue). this time? did not notice it once. only change to the car was a fresh set of conti DWS tires...
