Hey you guys.gimme some info Please.

Sometimes on full lock pulling out of car park spaces I get a small jolt.
Just like I have run over a small rock or such like,
should I be worried.Is there something amiss,or indeed did I drive over a small object,never seen anything in way,so assuming it has something to do with the steering or wheels positioning.

Help!!!!

I get the same thing. Just like running over a small rock.

Would be interested in finding out what caused this too!

From the front or back end?

Mine does this. Fernies told me it was the wheel rubbing on the wheel arch. Just one of the delights of TVR, nothing to worry about with normal driving.

I understood this was something to do with the limited slip diff as well, partially locking up and preventing the front from swinging round quite smoothly.

Nuff said on this one! You'll find the small rock's only there when it's cold.

When the diff's cold btw. Not when it's winter. Just in case you were wondering.

This was happening on ours too after we'd had the wishbones replaced. Cured now though - new Nitrons. We didn't do this to cure the problem but it has. Don't recommend this is your first course of action.
