Wandering 996TT - The Final Chapter

The wandering 996TT has now had a new front diff, four new Michelin Sports and a four wheel alignment at Reading OPC. With each change I had around a week to assess the impact, so what's the verdict?

Firstly, the new diff made no difference, secondly, the tyres made a huge, huge difference and lastly, the four wheel alignment had much less of an effect, but, after a few days there was a difference and the handling is now just fantastic - like driving a new car!

So in my experience I found the tyres to be the major cause of 996TT wandering. I'm sure the alignment is important and it has to be right, but it's not the most significant impact.

It would be interesting to know if my experience is common?

Thanks for all of your help on this

Cheers, Paul
 
Glad it turned out to be tyres as we thought, panned out ok, but an expensive trip along the way!
I am not surprised it took a few days to feel spot on, as the new tyres would need time to bed in properly.
Anyway enjoy the "new" handling, should be spot on in time for the slippery period ahead..
