Default Needs more diff lock

Coworker came in the back way to work today. Ended up in the classic one rear wheel and one front wheel spinning predicament. Had to get pulled out by an F250...

Do you work for some cult or militia that requires a secluded location? ;=)

Default That information is classified.

It's actually a typical suburban office park. There is a back way into the parking lot that avoids 3 really annoying speed bumps on the main road. I typically opt for the speed bumps, myself.

Default I acutually find my WRX to be better in the snow vs the S4..

Both cars had the same size snow tires but the WRX has an LSD in the rear (and a viscus center diff). Even with the diff locked the Subaru pulls away from a stop better and the LSD doesn't shut off after 20mph so it's more stable once you get going also. Easier to rotate when you want it to also.

LSD and Diff Lock are not the same.

Default There was no slip limiting evident in this case...

Maybe no LSD on an '03? Or optional?
