ok so i just got back from lunch and my car started doing something that i have never experienced before and its really bad. sometimes when turning and driving at the same time the wheels are binding. really really bad. like the car stops and goes. sounds to me like the trans or the diff. the weird part about it is that it does this only once in a while not all the time.


anyone have ideas?

the diffs are binding and not letting the wheels spin at different speeds when turning. its really jerky

That sucks. Check your diff fluid levels.

rofl!!!!!!!


the dccd in this car is very sensetive, one setting below lock still keeps the diff pretty locked and it prevents you from turning. live and learn hahahahahahahah i should of read the owners manual.

well car is fine, swithced it to manual and back to the norm

keep it in auto... really not much point in going into manual from any performance mindset. glad you figured it out though.

now how about a call back ray?
