sounds like the stability control and torque mnagement are doing what they are designed to do. more noticeable from a dead stop at an intersection with wheels turned and a little to much throttle. once car wheels are all pointed straight ahead after completing turn should not be noticeable. when it does this after completing turn give it a good shot of throttle without touching your traction control switch.still do it?watch for traction control off in your driver information center.
