HELP! Something is terribly wrong
So I was out in the C4 today and I am making a turn and upon acceleration it feels like my back end just completely lost it around the turn. At first I look back and was expecting to see a huge sheet of ice...but nothing. So I continue and it gets worse. I finally realize that the back end of the car is all over the road. Under acceleration it goes left and when it down shifts it pulls the rear end right. It is bad!!! It feels like the rear tires have a complete mind of their own.
Any ideas on what is loose/broken. I am hoping to get it up in the air this weekend and take a look. I hope its something obvious considering how bad I can feel it on the road.

something is loose or broken....that rear end is simple...everything is there to easily see.
I've had mine out so many times for this or that......I wouldn't even wait to get it up on a rack.....just jack it up so you fit under there and look around.
If you stress one more moment, your wasting energy.....

Once you look under it and find out what is broke, take a couple picures too. Let us all know what you find. If it is a part I have laying around the garage, just pay shipping and it is yours. Shoot me a PM and let me know what you need.
Merry Christmas!

My best guess is a broken spring.
Take pictues so we can see what broke!
