Method for determining steering misalignment of adaptive steering system of motor vehicle

The invention relates to a method for detecting a steering misalignment in an adaptive steering system of a motor vehicle, wherein the adaptive steering system has a steering wheel angle sensor (4) for detecting a value representative of a steering wheel angle (LW), an adaptive angle unit (6) for detecting a value representative of an adaptive angle (AW), and a wheel angle detection unit (18) fordetecting a value representative of a wheel angle (RW). The method including detecting a value representative of the steering wheel angle (LW), detecting a value representative of the adaptive angle (AW), detecting or determining a value representative of the wheel angle (RW), computing a comparison value (VW) with analysis of the value representative of the steering wheel angle (LW) and the valuerepresentative of the adaptive angle (AW) and the value representative of the wheel angle (RW), and generating an error signal (FS) if a comparison of the comparison value (VW) to a limiting value (GW) indicates that the comp
