normal?
 

i would like to know if this is normal, when i'm driving on the highway and changing lanes especially when the road is not flat or straight like there's a hump or in the middle does your 8 pull you through i mean you have to hold the steering quite hard, pls help it's really hard to explain

the hump probably causes a little loss in traction, and then after the hump, it regains it, so you get a little jerk

Do you have winter tires on now or still summers?

I get that problem too when I have the summer tires on, but with the winters on it's not as bad at all. It's just the car following the camber of the road.

If you don’t have anything intelligent to say its best not to say anything at all.

And yes its normal, our cars tramline very easily on uneven roads it’s just the tires searching for the path of least resistance. i always notice when breaking hard and crossing lanes, they're a few reviews on the 8 that mention this issue.

thanks guys just need to know if it does the same thing with other 8's, love the car

WTF??!! are you serious?

To be fair to the other guy, your explanation of losing and regaining traction momentarily is kind of off. The kickback in the steering is not a loss of traction, but a deflection of front wheel. If you really do lose traction up front, there would be no kickback in the steering. Like when you understeer in a FWD econobox during a snowstorm and the steering just go limp and the car refuses to turn.

To the OP, all sports cars suffer from this problem. You can dial it out in the suspension, but then the car will drive like a Camry.

true, but its not like i was talking out of my ass

How are you not talking out of your ass? Since your response is a 100% wrong. I’m not trying to start anything, but I get pissed when people post misinformation and act like they know something they clearly do not.

how is that completely wrong, that is basic physics. but w.e. i dont care

Your being a real @sshole man....

The guy was just posting up what he thinks it is.

Just trying to help imo.

I am sure their are many wrong responses, from other user out there, when someone posts a q's.

You could have avoided the unnecessary comments about him, and posted what you think the problem is.

thank you

Which makes it okay to continue to post incorrect information? This is one of this forums issues, some people should stick to asking questions instead of trying to answer them.

and thanks I’d much rather be an asshole than someone that runs around posting bullshit responses in every thread to increase my post count.

The correct reason/answer is...
Pie.
That's why that happens.

^^So does this mean that you are right all the time?^^

If the problem is something else, like possibly bump steer, then does that make you just as wrong as he is?

Back on topic: this could be due to bump steer. Every car has some degree of bump steer. Google "bump steer" if you want more info.

oooook, cause if you have seen one of my posts you seen them all. haha, your a funny guy:icon_no2:

but i posted what i thought was logically correct. i dunno about you, but i took AP physics, and when and object goes down a slope and comes up fast, whether its a car and a small divet in the road, or its a skateboarder in a half pipe, its the same thing, just the after effect of "liftoff" or whatever you want to call it are in different amounts. the car does experience a loss of traction, whether its 10%, 50% or whatever. try flooring the car in 2nd gear and going over some bumps, you will know what im talking about them.

Well stay in school and keep taking classes, since your still wrong and that’s all that matters.
If you have anything more to say to me just pm me so we can stop posting in this thread thanks

soo physics is wrong. ok w.e.
