Default Couple of hawkeye questions

Hey folks recently bought a hawkeye sti

I read when reversing that the diff clunks I read on here to set it in lowest mode and works perfect

Now my problem is when go forward in auto and make a sharpish turn or a 90 degree turn there seems to be a sound of rubbing or jittering

Is this just the diff because of auto mode and what should I do to stop it

It gets quite annoying thinking the car is broke

And I'd shudder to think what it would be like on track like that

Steve

Is this when sitting stationary or moving? And is it on full lock?

My 07 Hawk is identical. Hates being moved slowly and at tight angles. But yes, on the move it's fine.

I never really use the dial on my DCCD.

Which direction would get the rear wheels spinning a bit?
Only so I know to avoid it.
