I test drove an eTorque truck with 3.21 gears and 20s. I am not sure if it was limited slip. It was very smooth. The eTorque system was not even noticeable.
I got my truck a few days ago. It has a 3.92 limited slip rear. Other than that, I can't think of what would be involved in the drive train that could affect this. About half the time, the truck lurches with a little burst of torque when I take my foot off the brake at a light. The engine restart is barely noticeable but the lurch forward is unsettling. If I am too quick to step on the gas, it is even worse so I have been training myself to give it a half second but it is still sometimes jumping on it's own before I can even hit the gas. If this was my Mustang, I would be pretty pleased with that. But this is a very smooth luxury truck and it seems kind of uncivilized to be lurching forward. Everything else about the truck is very refined except that.
I am thinking it is either the combo of the eTorque and low gearing or that something is wrong with my eTorque system. Before I go whining to the dealership and asking to test drive a lot of other trucks to compare, I wanted to see if anyone else noticed this.
Does anyone have this combination who could comment? Have you noticed this in yours?
