I am also having the exact same problem since Friday the 21st of October. Worked fine at night racing F1 22 with my Logitech g920. The next day on Saturday, my Xbox was basically unusable when my wheel was plugged in. Everything’s been so slow and won’t load. And I noticed that when I finally got through on F1… my wheel just wouldn’t work. Wouldn’t change gears or move the car. But when I was trying it with my controller it worked fine…. So then I shut down my Xbox and unplugged my wheel and tried turning it back on. I got into F1 right away. Everything was working. Racing was fine with my controller, so I plugged the wheel back in, and it’s still all messed up. So I’ve come to the conclusion that whatever it going on with my Xbox. It was being caused by my wheel being plugged into my USB port…As we speak I am currently logging into Forza fine now too… with the wheel unplugged…

I purchased the Forza Hot Wheels but it only loads Forza Horizon? How do you get the Hot Wheels game?

I plugged my wheel into my pc and nothing happened, I have tried the wheel in all ports. Works on the dashboard all buttons and d pad, Open Forza and nothing, No buttons or wheel.

I'm having the same trouble as well! I've used my G923 on my Xbox one every week this year and every night so far this week with no issues whatsoever. Tonight I get on it and there's horrible lag when pressing the Xbox button, when loading games, when playing games.

F1 2022 took ages to load up, when I finally got on track the steering didn't work and the throttle was stuck on max.

I've just loaded up Forza Horizon 5 and the sound is very slow and choppy, the voice actors sound like they are talking into a fan, and the steering cuts in and out.

As soon as I disconnect the wheel it goes instantly back to normal.

Plugging the wheel into my PC shows no signs that the wheel is at fault.

Has there been a recent Xbox one update that could have caused this? I leave my Xbox on standby so I rarely notice when an update happens.
