Default Miomentary Engine Hesitation

I own a 2001 Jaguar XKR with 91k miles and recently updated cam chain tensionsers, I know this sounds odd but I am experiencing a momentary engine hesitation at very low throttle when turning left! The car does not experience this hesitation when I turn right or straight ahead.

I have to add more throttle for the engine to speed up and then runs fine.

Has anybody experienced this before and what can I do to correct?

Thanks for your help

Have you checked for OBDII fault codes?

No I have not, but no indication on the dash of any problems. I will check codes and let you know.

Sounds like your traction control... Watch your center display whenever you make a turn.
