I was accelerating pretty quickly in 2nd/3rd gear around 4500rpm yesteday evening and had a heart-in-mouth moment :wow: when my beautiful QV decided to veer to the right - I'm guessing this was a nasty example of torque steering - has anyone else had a similar problem?

Only other thing could be feedback from the road but I didn't notice any particular road wear that would have made such an abrupt change to the steering - your thoughts are welcomed!

I read it as being the same thing, in different degrees. I recognise the symptoms of a twitchy front end as of the other thread linked, but once or twice mine has taken a more notable dive toward the central reservation. I take that to be a more severe case of the same issue.

Just my own thoughts :lol:

It may just be the way the power is applied, I know when I first drove my V6, I thought there was something wrong :eek: :lol:
