SLIGHT BRAKING EFFECT WHEN ON FULL LOCK
When manoeuvering on full lock at low speed, slight resistance to rolling is felt in both forward and reverse directions.
Cause
Characteristics of the viscous coupling employed in the transmission which result in slight ‘wind up’ between front and rear wheels.
Action
Do not attempt to rectify this condition as it is a characteristic of the model. In the event of customer complaint, explain to the customer that there is no fault with the car and that this is a normal effect which is noticeable on vehicles which employ a viscous coupling in the ‘drive line’.
