Default pulling to the left
I noticed my car pulling to the left while in WOT. It first came to my attention while driving in the rain. Every time I applied a little gas the rear end, or so it seems, would pull out. In turn the car would pull to the left causing me to counter steer. A friend of mine thinks its a problem with the diff. Just wanted to hear it from you guys before I take her to the shop. I'm thinking the repair, if it was a differential problem, would cost me around 500 dollars. I hope its just a suspension tweek.

Check tire pressures. make sure they're even on both sides.

Tire pressure or uneven tire wear due to uneven tire pressure.
