pwgtang Posted November 29, 2003 Share Posted November 29, 2003 I had a 94 ls400 without traction control, recently I jack up the car and put on drive mode, I had notice the rear wheel passenger side run much faster than the driver side looks most torque was on pasenger side wheel. I had check both rear wheels brades no drag on both wheels. Is this normal or something was wrong on the drive gear? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SRK Posted November 29, 2003 Share Posted November 29, 2003 Completely normal. The car has an "open" differential, and the one that turns, is the one that turns first. The traction control has to see front wheel rotation to work, and some throttle opening. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
doiturself Posted November 29, 2003 Share Posted November 29, 2003 It had something to do with positive and negative traction, while on curve one wheel has to be faster than the other to catch up speed. It's normal! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wwest Posted November 29, 2003 Share Posted November 29, 2003 And don't be surprised if at some point you discover that are rotating in different directions, one forward and one backward, that's also NORMAL. Also the reason parking (e-brake) brake should always be set on slippery surfaces. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
