Clunky sharp turning when cold
Clunky sharp turning when cold
I've noticed that when I wake up my 991 and it is still very cold, 3-point turns feel very bumpy and funky when the steering is at its extreme...almost as if the wheel is catching a mudflap, or the brake-hold function is repeatedly engaging and releasing. Once the car is warmed up I can no longer reproduce this effect.
Have any other 991 owners noticed anything like this?

Further searching has revealed what appears to be my problem.
The fronts have a lot of caster and the cold tires are scrubbing on 45 degree turns until the tires warm up and get flexible.

Hasn't been cold enough to experience any thing like that. Will let you know how it behaves in 140 F this summer.

These threads all cover this fairly extensively and seem to confirm with confidence that it is not a defect, but is indeed "working as intended":
