Thread: MPS 6 Car parking shudder from rear end

  1. Default MPS 6 Car parking shudder from rear end

    Guys,
    When reversing on full lock, I get a shudder like the rear wheels binding, then slipping. It's hard to describe, but feels like a LSD which is quite tight.

    Is this normal. The car is nearly out of warranty, so I am hearing every noise now

    If you apply the handbrake one notch, does it stop happening?

    Hi mate, have a read here, might help you Strange feeling reversing refer to Doug's comments on full lock/power steering/stalling etc. I think there certain strains when reversing at full lock so my guess would be is that it is normal but have a read of the thread and see what you think. Hope that helps

    That's exactly it. Thought it may have been something like that.

    The thread you linked described it perfectly. I'll try the handbrake at the shops tomorrow

    Good to hear Also try lifting the handbrake to the first notch at 100kmph if that resonance gets too annoying

    What BB said, but is "stallable" a word
    R36 - Just like an MPS6 except with a growly V6
