Was shooting around yesterday in the wet and the car was oversteering and sliding/drifting all over the place.Can't hear any noises,might be the crappy tires but is there anything that could have broke that could be the cause,i'll try and get it on a ramp asap.
 
The only time I experienced that was when the rear diff split open and /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/swear.gif oil over the tyres! Was a recall issue on early cars
 
Try it on different pieces of road. When there are oily roads and a bit of rain, they can be like a skating rink.

There are certain roundabouts near me where a list mist of rain mean I can very easily get the whole car to drift with very little throttle, and other bits of road where everything feels good and grippy.
 
Got to the 02 center in London near the Audi dealership, they got a crackin rounabout and I got the car to go full side ways drift /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/froggie_red.gif these past few days with the rain. I thought it was normal for it to slip and drift (controllably with Esp off)
 
I was actually drifting around at quite slow speed and was in total control,quite cool really!
