Steering Malfunction. Drive Moderately. No Power Steering after Cranking Car

[Martin Strauss]

After cranking my car, I would say more than half of the time over the past few weeks, I have gotten the BMW warning stating: Steering Response. Drive Moderately. It leaves me with no Power Steering and I must either hit "Ok" to the warning on the idrive screen to gain power steering, or if that doesn't work put the car in drive or reverse to gain Power Steering. Sometimes neither works but usually after at most I'd say 25-30 secs the wheel breaks free and I gain Power Steering and the ability to drive the car. Thinking Steering Angle Sensor, but need help pinpointing the cause. I have seen walkthroughs for resetting the DSC, but I tried it to no success. Have not seen many threads regarding this except for BMW replacing a lot of steering racks and that is out of the equation atm. Thanks! Any advice appreciated.
