Limited slip differential*
With unfavorable road conditions, the
drive forces that should be transferred
may not accommodated by the tradi-
tional differential, and therefore one
wheel spins. Such wheelspin is largely
prevented by the limited slip differential
(locking value approx. 25 X).
Under actual driving conditions, this
means better traction characteristics
when starting and accelerating under
adverse road conditions as described
as well as during performance-oriented
driving on winding roads.
However, in the case of extremely dy-
namic driving, the vehicle may tend at
the same time to spin around its vertical
axis in the vehicle center of gravity on
road surfaces with different adhesion
characteristics. Controlling this rotation
tendency places greater demands on
the driver and therefore requires special
alertness.
The limited slip differential is automati-
cally activated under actual driving
conditions.
