nearly spun it today

[Simply si]

yup, my inexperience :nenau in the wet with a 4x4 showed its ugly head today and i nearly lost it at a roundabout. back end went one way, i went the other but managed to snap her back in before i turned it into an xbox (360 lol).:lol

made me drive very cautiously the rest of the way home.

that is all.

oooo.. chech tyres and dif oil...

you cound need to change one or the other or both..

dont forget its rear wheel drive.. think youve been used to front wheel drive for to long. rear wheel drive can be a little tail happy if you stamp on the loud pedal a bit to early ..

also could have been oil on the road...

Mine was the same till I changed the diff oil, make sure both rear tyres have the same pressures and depth of tread.
Diff oil is special and you need just less than 3 litres.

i think its tyres to be honest and i sometimes forget im not in my 170bhp brm now and cant thrash corners with the same disregard in the 4x4.

was quite a hairy moment. any guides or links to doing the rear diff oil?

cheers, simon

p.s, i reckon the new pump zip fitted has increased its horsepower by around 86 and thats what the problem was.
