Depending on the amount/severity of slip, you can sometimes feel a slight reluctance to turn in on sharp corners, which feels a little like understeer : which I can imagine was why creepy coupe asked that. We know there is no geometry change, but that is one effect of an LSD.

One other question, is there any increase in mecanical noise from the diff - as you state that the diff uses gearing, rather than a shear properties/hydraulic application ?
