any ideas? It feels like there is resistance...and the car kinda studders as it moves....but only when turning.

That's a normal thing when the weather's cold. There was a thread on the UK Forum about it recently, something about the tyres getting cold.
It's happened to me a few times when reversing out of a parking space!

I don't want to alarm you,
but do you know where your haldex is? I had similar sympt during left and a slight rumble from the rear and hesitation at the steering wheel. Turned out to be the haldex clutch...but your's could just be cold weather related, as you noted.

Hmm...good to know others have had it as well....
Danny at KMD Tuning seems to think it *may* have something to do with wornout tires combined with the cold weather. The car seemed to have resistance...almost like I needed to give it a little extra gas to get it moving.

Yes, the haldex and the final drive
where all changed out under warranty. When I went in for haldex service, I suspected something was up. The tech stated the haldex drain fluid included "bits and pieces of the clutch." TG for warranty. When I go in for the 40K haldex service I need to be there and witness the drain...LOL...make sure it's clean....
