Heavy steering on E91 320D

I’ve just bought another E91 , lovely car but the steering is really heavy compared to my last one. Both cars are the same model/age.

Has anyone experienced the same and found a fix for it? I’ve read about people greasing the steering joints on the bottom link so might give that a go.

Will most likely be wheel alignment or tyre pressure

I’ve checked the pressures , they were slightly out but not enough to notice any difference. It’s going back to BMW for them to do an alignment so will see if that makes a difference.

I have just changed from a 120d msport (2007) to 320d msport (2009) and steering feels heavier to me.
