Are you passing in the last frame's transformation matrix properly?
What size timestep are you using? Are you stacking trimesh objects
on one another?
I heartily recommend filtering and merging contact data that comes back
from dCollideTTL, too. You could try sorting them by contact depth,
and then marging any contacts with similar depth, normal and location.
As a first pass that should fix some of the collision asymmetry that
results from asymmetric triangulations.
