I think dpoll995 is asking whether the LSD is marginalized by TCS and ESC when they are engaged. I have wondered about this as well.
If one wheel slips, does the TCS brake the wheel first, preventing the LSD from functioning? Or is no slippage signal received by the TCS because the LSD locks first? If it's the first case, it seems like the LSD would mostly only be useful with TCS disabled.

yea thats what i was asking. it seems like a waste if you have LSD and traction control.
