757 crosswind landing problem.

Hi everyone!Thought i'd give the 757 another go recently, but I was immediately reminded why I stopped using it.Set myself up for a manual crosswind landing. 12-15 kts from the left. Of course on approach, the nose is out to the left. Over the threshold, the time comes to kick it in the right direction by applying right rudder. Now this is where the problem starts. The aircraft starts to drift to the left (i.e. towards the direction of the wind). So to stop that tendancy I have to land on the wrong wheels (downwind wheels first). Then it flounders all over the runway whilst slowing down. That can't be right, surely. None of my other add-ons display this behaviour. It is the latest version (v1.3 I believe) Any clues? Many thanks in advance! :(
