Can anyone shed some light on the torque steer compensation mode? It is disabled on the SHO, Fusion Sport, and my 2018 XLT 4WD. My XLT did not have soft stop or pull drift compensation turned on either like on the SHO and Fusion Sport, just active return to center.
When I enabled soft stop and drift pull, I noticed my XLT assist at low speeds or when stopped, is reduced.
I have not tried turning on torque steer compensation, how does it work and what does it feel like? My Cobalt SS Turbo needs that, over 300 hp and FWD.
To answer the OP, the PTU works all the time but the RDU coupler has to lock or slip the clutches. More RWD bias on our AWD systems may roast the PTU fluid even faster and or wear out the RDU clutch coupler unit slightly faster.
