Re: Torque Steer? I think not. 850 95

Agree. There is a fair degree of torque steer on my 850T5 wagon too but only when I kick down hard ie. drop 2 gears at low speed. Tell me this isn't t-steer: I kick down (auto box) and find myself "fighting" with my steering wheel which wants to go left and right till the tires get a good grip. Oh, and that happened once while taking a corner and I practically scared myself silly!

On the train-tracking - I'm more familiar with the phrase "tram-lining" but same thing - it doesnt affect my wagon with standard 205/50ZR16 tires.
