I back my Treg into my carport, and when I am backing to the right from the alley, I feel, more than hear, what seems to be some sort of binding. It doesn't jerk, stutter, or make any real noise I can describe, but I can feel it. The best I can describe it is it feels like something is rubbing. As soon as I straighten out the wheels, it goes away.

I do not have this feeling when making forward turns, even at low rpms. My stepper motor in front (is there more than one? I read somewhere there was) appears to be original, with a 2005 build date on it.

Any ideas?

Sounds like the stepper motor on the center diff. Check the part number on it, if it ends in a "A" its the old version.

Ok thanks...I will crawl underneath it tomorrow and take another peek. I wasn't sure if that would affect it that way or not. Unfortunately, at this point, I doubt I will get the dealer to fix it under warranty, because I doubt someone who doesn't drive it everyday, would notice it.

Its like how I feel my throttle body is probably getting bad too, every once in while I get an abrupt shift for no rhyme or reason, but it isn't consistent enough to take in.

Yet.

Thanks.
