Been driving it in the snow now and I notice every time I get home there's only snow build up behind the drivers side tire, NEVER behind the pass side. So today it was raining and I did a couple little burnouts from stop signs and it's ALWAYS the driver side spinning. I took a tight right turn and made it spin [which should ALWAYS engage the pass side] yet the drivers side was the one spinning. It is NEVER getting power. I'm not hearing any clicking like a bad axle would. What could be the culprit and what should I check out? |

Just jack the front of the car up (use jack stands). Put the car in drive.... one wheel will spin. Get some gloves and slow the rotation down, see if the other wheel starts to spin.
If it does you dont have a problem. If you stop that wheel and the other wheel isn't spinng somethings wrong, but i'm willing to bet its fine. -------------------- -93 Rx7, Turbo 6.1L v8, 725rwhp/760rwtq
