I had the back of my car up today while i was bleeding my brake lines and wondered if I have a VLSD or not. While in park (yeah i know auto 240 sucks) I spun 1 wheel and the other spun in the opposite direction. i believe that's what a VLSD should do. Then i put it in N,D,2,and 1 and the other wheel didn't spin when I spun one. Do I have a VLSD?

doesnt sound like it.

adrians_s13 · 05-17-2008, 06:11 PM

nope....

not it.

w/ LSD, both wheels should spin in the same direction if you move one wheels.

You sir have open

Adrians_S13 is correct you have an Open Diff.
Also if you had a VLSD there would be an orange sticker on the (mainly) upper left side of the diff cover

The car must be in neutral and both wheels spin together if its a VLSD.

Both open diff and VLSD in gear will turn one wheel in opposite direction, however the VLSD will give more resistance than the open diff when doing this.
