Right rear tire chirp
I sometimes hear a short squeal or chirp from my right rear tire when I take a sharp right turn - even at low speed. I checked the tire pressure and the tire, and everything was okay. Could this be something to do with the limited slip differential?
The only time I have heard this on other cars I've driven was when the tire was low, when I was really pushing the car, or when the tire hit something slippery like a metal plate. Last edited by FRiSson; 08-05-2012 at 11:12 AM. |

Possibly, also along with the fact the Primacy HP tires are not real grippy tires by nature, so they will tend to squeal and/or chirp pretty easily.

Probably the LSD, mine locks up pretty easy during sharp turns if I give it a little throttle

Yup. Its the nature of the beast. I had never driven a RWD with LSD before, but I knew enough about it to kind of expect it. The tires definitely don't help.
