Yeah that’s just the jerkyness of the ABT. Downside of torque biasing diffs right there. Repetitive and rapid succession loading/unloading of an ABT can induce torque distribution fluctuations which cause torque steer.

I’m pretty sure the car has a jackshaft and equal length halfshafts right, so that rules out torsional toque steer for the most part.
