Reverse full lock wheels seem to slip
Hi
When I go out in the morning to my c430 and start to reverse always on full lock either right or left the wheels seem to slip or slightly spin - it only happens for a second but it's strange and doesn't always happen.
Any ideas / feedback would be great.
Thanks
Tony

By turning sharply you're asking the inside tire to spin much more slowly than the outside tire - think limited-slip differential. Also, your tires are also cold and have much less traction than when hot. Summer tires are especially bad and plastic-like in the cold. So, the drive train stress is relieved when the tires slip. Keep turning at it may happen over and over until you straighten out.
