Sometimes (ie not every time!) when I am turning right at full (or nr full) lock at crawling pace I get a clunk from the rear of the car. It feels like a wheel has just slipped down the side of a tall 'cats eye' (if that makes sense!).
the car is on nitrons and had the diff bush done a few months ago.
So I guess it is off to the garage but am wondering if this could be diff, exhaust or maybe a busn on the suspension? Any ideas?
thanks
Gary

On rare occassions I get similar (in the same circs as you). Very odd. TVR have checked it out (twice) and tell me all is well. If you manage to work this one out, I would be very interested to hear from you.

Would say perhaps a function of a limited slip diff? Certainly my Chimaera did this when reversing off the drive on full lock. Just backing off a little from full lock stopped it happening. Will see if the Cerb does the same when she returns.

Check out the 'manual' on
www.tvr-cerbera.com/
then look up the part on the diff, it might be of some use.

Get something similar, and again only on right turns as I recall, although I also get it at roundabout speeds too.

Getting the 24,000 miles service done after Le Mans, so will see if that sorts it.

Nice to know its not just me though
