S2IM Posted November 8, 2011 Report Share Posted November 8, 2011 Since picking up the Cooper S (R56 turbo variant) its has a tendency to torque steer a lot. It has caught me out a couple of times pulling off in either direction when accelerating out of a junction or accelerating hard to overtake. Can this be dialled out? I will be booking the car to come up anyway as with any new car I get, I make sure it gets a once over from Pete or Tony. I have a feeling this car has never had any Geo done so probably due (07) plate. Just curious if its a geo thing or if its a LSD issue? Getting the power down is a mare at the moment in first and second. I am sure the run flats are not helping matters! (next change will be to normal tyres and a can of foam in the boot with an AA membership!) Cheers Iain Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tony Posted November 9, 2011 Report Share Posted November 9, 2011 Not a known problem to me..... I would suggest the engine mounts are checked because often if the are worn torque off-sets the drive shafts generating steer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
