Angry Zexal Torsen?

When i turn to the left and get on it, it will posi up and slide out fine(wet out though) But when i turn to the right and do it it just spins the right tire but doesnt want to posi up? When im straight and powerbrake it posi`s up. When i turn slightly when powerbraking its only the right tire again that spins. Im just wondering if i should get it fixed now on warranty(still got 2 1/2 years on it) Or should i wait till it gets worse so i know the warranty company will cover it. Also if anyone knows a good rear end place in Oregon please tell me. My dealership wouldnt work on it because the warranty didnt want to buy a new carrier. They want to put in this aftermarket stuff that is weaker then stock. They put it in this truck before and its broke 3 times since and its a stock 4X4 truck so they dont want to be a part of it anymore.

You'll hear the Torsen locking up and make a poping noise when they are starting to go bad. As for you situation, I would have to say it's starting to loosen up.

what about a slight knocking, or rattling type noise when your off the gas, and slowing down...is that the same problem, or something else?

Could be Torsen locking from uneven tire wear. Check your tires.

I just got new GSD3`s like 2 months ago, already had them balanced and rotated like a week ago. So they should be perfectly fine, the car has about 50k miles on it so i think its just about time for it to go out.
