I had this same problem on the opposite side and found it was a case of having too much positive camber on the N/S wheel. It wasn't even 1 degree out but enough to make it feel like the wheel was going to tuck under the car if I pushed it too much!

Thanks all- found the adjuster on the top of the shock absorber and sure enough the passenger side was't at the max setting like the drivers side!! Adjusted them to match and just from ptting my weight on each corner it appears to be same level of resistance. Hoping for a dry day tomorrow to see if it feels better on the road.

Have to say this is by far the best car owners forum I have ever used - everyone is really helpful and clearly don't mind helping us new boys out!!

Thanks

But for the purest engine experience, displacement has no replacement. All other methods are simply attempts to artificially recreate the benefits of displacement.
