Boxob Posted November 5, 2016 Report Share Posted November 5, 2016 If not a mechanical issue then likely to be 'tyre skip' due to Ackerman effect. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iain3915 Posted November 5, 2016 Report Share Posted November 5, 2016 Possibly the ball joint on the control arm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My car loves to do it. Feels gross, especially as I run meaty new 235/40's up front. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greenman Posted November 6, 2016 Report Share Posted November 6, 2016 My 981 does this and it's quite disconcerting until you understand what it is. The wider the front tyres, the smaller the sidewall, the colder the weather the worse the problem. These Porsches are tuned for higher speed stability and one of the consequences is this issue on full lock. It becomes more of an issue now in low temps due to less elasticity in summer tyres.
