Anyone experience jerky acceleration at WOT especially around corners? no, i don't mean the fuel pump being bad... i mean jerky almost like the car is bouncing against the transmission or something. i just did it for the first time in a while with the max and it pulled kinda weakly around the corner with the RPM's kinda bogging down a little, then picked up smoothly when i straightened out. it didn't use to feel like that when the car was newer and had less mileage. is that tranny wear? engine getting old and not pulling as hard? 18" rims being too heavy? suspension issues (i.e. lower control arm, bushings, etc...)? just curious

 

do the rpms drop really low when you step on the breaks while making a turn?

 

no... not that i can remember

 

Well yeah, if you're going around a corner you're in 3rd. It's going to bog down going to 1st around the corner and hit 1st out of the corner.

 

that would be cauce you have a non locking diff so in hard turns one wheel loses power and the other one has ful lpower not to mention the the binding cauced by near lock turning this also causes binding which diminshes power output from the engine to wheels solution get a get a locking diff and axles and go have fun
