Default Troll under my car?

So the car-hypocondric is back..

I have a sound when I do sharp turns at slow speed, was told it's normal but never know and might as well share

It's coming from the back of the car, hard to say wich side. It's a Quattro.

Default RE: Troll under my car?

sound didn't work...

if you believe it to be the rear. jack up both rear tires. and spin them both. one by one in the same direction. then opposites, then both in the same and both in opposites. try rocking the tire in both direction as fast as possible.

your trying to recreate the knock in the rear diff. if not your atleast ruling it out.

then start checking suspension. rear sway bar bushings... look for anything cracked, bent, or broken.

So it wasnt a troll, just changed haldex oil and the sound is gone.

Been a while since I got it fixed but thought I should update if someone is searching for same thing, dunno why sound doesnt work.. oh well
