Front wheel hop

Featured Replies

On a rear wheel drive we used to call it axle tramp or hop when you really let her put power down and it needs more help to stop wheel hopping and loosing traction now I've not had this on a front wheel drive car before, if I let rip out of a junc she brakes traction and clonks or judders drivers side only time it does it are all vrs like this do they need upgraded springs or coilovers to really put the power down as fronts so light or are my shocks shot, ha ha 

You can change engine mounts etc.

But,

Just hold the TC button and put it off and fit good tyres that give grip.   Stops the TC nipping at the brakes and stops power getting cut with a Twincharger / DSG.

As I thought had put her to paddles before now to keep her in gear as the slightest loose surface she will light up, I'll see what she's like with tc off, I've alot of gravel and crappy roads where I am always does it pulling out specially if having to do in a hurry

Even with uprated engine mounts and supports on a pretty good surface and accelerating straight you can get those horrific bangs.

 

Putting the TC off worked for me in any twincharger, and on mine i also put the XDS setting down. (Sometimes OFF.)

Only way to get rid of it is fitting plastic remoulds so you have no grip. 
 

ive got the full vibratechnics mounts with a wavetrac lsd and pilot sport 4’s and still does it as it’s the tyres gripping that causes it.

You really can get the car not to do it with a DQ200 DSG.
