I'm finding the scroll wheel/button on the J12 steering wheel quite hard to move up or down without pressing it by accident.

Anyone else having this problem? Does it loosen up with use?

Atm I'm having to use my fingernail to move it

Agree. Wheel should either be bigger or have coarser knurling.

I've done about 500 miles in mine since 1st April and I haven’t noticed this problem.
I don’t like it but it works as Nissan seems to have desired

If it is really too difficult that turn (easily) then you may have to give the dealership a call ?

I have no problem. If you need a fingernail to turn it as it is that stiff, you need to get it looked at.

Thank you all for your replies. I was hoping it was just a case of using it for a while before it loosened up a bit. My hands are as tough as old boots which probably doesn't help.
I'll get it checked out when I am out the direction of the dealership again.
