Defective Anti-Spin LSD?

[Dusty1948]

Even if this is a pre-load problem, the fact that turning one wheel causes the other wheel to turn in the opposite direction doesn't make sense for a clutch-type LSD.

You know a lot of people think I'm silly for reading the owner's manual but you find all sorts of tidbits of information:

The limited-slip differential is especially helpful during slippery driving conditions. With both rear wheels on a slippery surface, a slight application of the accelerator will supply maximum traction. When starting with only one rear wheel on an excessively slippery surface, slight momentary application of the parking brake may be necessary to gain maximum traction.

Slight momentary application of an electric parking brake???

Slight momentary application of an electric parking brake???

Again, the manual:

If exceptional circumstances should make it necessary to engage the parking brake while the vehicle is in motion, maintain upward pressure on the EPB switch for as long as engagement is desired. The BRAKE telltale light will illuminate, and a continuous chime will sound. The rear stop lamps will also be illuminated automatically while the vehicle remains in motion.To disengage the parking brake while the vehicle is in motion, release the switch. If the vehicle is brought to a complete stop using the parking brake, when the vehicle reaches approximately 3 mph, (5 km/h) the parking brake will remain engaged.
