My Q7 has been gradually getting worse... the sensation is hard to describe - it's perhaps like the feel of a go kart with no rear differential on "knobbly" tyres? As you pull away, there is a sensation of "juddering" (it feels like it's coming from the rear wheels). This is especially prevelant when the steering is not dead-ahead.

The car is on Pirelli Scorpion Snow+Ice 21". The rears are quite low - about 1mm above the wear indicator marker (obviously not perfect but still very legal).

I am worried that a differential is failing. :(
