There are different types of limited slip or locking rear differentials. Here's a video about what he means:

I believe it is a 1 way with 40% lockup on accel, and 0% on coast. It's a Drexler unit (one of the best LSD makers), with 4 clutch packs.

Can upgrade to a 1.5 or 2 way and stronger clutches via Florian at LimitedSlip.de

I still can't believe I found no settings in the connect C4, needing to be changed for the traction control, for the LSD cars.
Maybe they are just not accessible at the level of my software.

I have looked at reviews of people that retrofitted LSD, vs people that had factory LSD and it seems the retrofitters had complaints about the retrofit in bad weather, while the factory drivers didn't seem to have them.
I would think that the software changes (if there were any) would kick in in bad weather.
