Reverse full lock , wind up ?

May of allays happened..but .. just backed out of a parking slot , at full lock , after about 90 degs , gave the impression of something winding up , like a elastic band at the rear wheels ?

Driving normally otherwise , reverses ok , full lock forward ok ... just full lock reverse ? is the rear diff limited slip ?

Tnx -G,

Haldex/controller potentially faulty ... Try pulling fuse 31 and see if it does the same thing... If not then chances are the controller is faulty

Tnx can try that , fuse location ?
No dash warnings showing

Haldex or a faulty diff wouldn’t bring up a dash warning. fuse is driver side of the dash when the door is open

I had a similar issue temporarily after the car being on ramps for a few days - maybe look at the haldex fluids and filter

new haldex fluid and filter went in about 10,000 miles back ..

After pulling the haldex fuse?

Ahhhh but this is how it begins.....soon it will do it more often and more often and eventually you'll lose the will to live!

£50 says it's either, the Haldex controller or the Haldex wiring clip that's corroded.

After pulling the haldex fuse?

No never got to that stage , took it to an empty park, tried the 90 each way expecting the lock up , nothing, full 360 each way .. just the same .. so its due service , according to the dash at start up , good time to check the connectors ..

 

[AGB-S3]

Check the connections to rear diff/haldex , connectors all in good condition , fault not reoccurred
on with the show .. till something else drop's off , other than the n/s track rod end that has play
