PJ220

Hello Just posted selfsame question in 'Brakes and suspension'...doh! It makes sense that it can occur with different tread patterens (never noticed it with Bridgstone OE tyres, or Michelins until well worn?) Most odd...!!! Peter

Good morning all Have just joined and have a question regarding my 07 plate IS220-D-SE Having recently changed my frot tyres from Michelin (awful) to Dunlop SP (very good) I have noticed a really bad clunking/grabbing sound when backing out on (or near) full lock - it feels like the tyres are gripping then slipping and gripping again... It's only at low speed, once above a few mph all is well, stability is fine etc. It just sounds bad and I have never noticed it before. Tracking is fine, any ideas? The car has been in for a lot of issues recently and admit to having lost a lot of faith in it after 85k miles..hmm? Many thanks Peter
