Skidding sound on corners - waterwiz - 03-08-2017 03:02pm
Hi
I have a 64 plate Evoque Dynamic auto and sometimes when I go round corners I hear a "skidding" noise from the rear. At first I thought it might be something sliding about in the boot but even after emptying the boot I still hear it occasionally. There doesn't appear to be any pattern to it.
The car still feels stable with no feeling of slipping. I've checked the tyres for signs of scuffing etc and nothing appears to be rubbing under the car.
Has anyone got any ideas?

Welcome waterwiz,
What speed are you driving around these corners when you hear the skidding sound
It's just that I have a version in my mind of you drafting around the streets on your way to work.
As for a sensible answer to your question I've not heard anyone else with your issue

hi Doug
I've tried drifting but can't get the technique quite right.
I should have mentioned that it only appears to be coming from the back left.

We have had the same problem, tried 2 dealers but could to find anything wrong, my Indy suggests it is something to do with the turbo boost surging when there is a demand for more power e.g. on accelerating after slowing down. This has also been discussed on here.
