Definitely check pressures and centre lock torque.

But cold weather exacerbates it - Mrs Jobbo expressed some disquiet at the Cayenne doing it (Conti Sport Contact 7s) last Thursday morning in the frost when she dropped me at the station.

If it's doing it at 15mph (on part-lock too?) then yeah there may indeed be something wrong (as that's not really the phenomena I'm describing above). I'd also be checking whether your centrelock(s) is(are) loose..... :?
Also weird that everything online says the P Zeros are worse than the PS4S for it whereas I've had the exact opposite experience!

Such a bonkers concept and it produces so much friction it's great. It's not the only trash my wife watches but it's the only one I watch with her; she might swear at I'm a Celeb, I've no idea because I wouldn't be in the room :lol:
