Thought I'd throw this out since it's in a similar vein. Just in the last couple months, I've started having the Traction Control kick on during sweeping, high speed curves like entrance or exit ramps. It has never done this before.
It's not an actual loss of traction, it's like something in the rear grabs. It doesn't feel like a brake though (which it should be doing all the time if that's the case, and there's no burnt brake smell), and it's under steady power or even coasting - but not lift-off in the corner, more like off the gas before entering. I have new tires (it was doing it before and after tires). I also just had an alignment done which appeared to help a bit. Before it happened in the forties, now it happens in the fifties. Otherwise, the car continues to drive straight, doesn't pull, no unusual tire wear, no vibration.
And again, it's not just a plain old traction loss because it's happening on ramps I regularly did at 70+ with no drama. It also doesn't appear to happen at low speed.
Is it possible for the Torsen LSD to go bad or get damaged and do something like this? Just spitballin' here.
