diff between LSD and DSC w/ Tranction control

aren't they essentially the same thing?

LSD transfer power from the wheel that spin to the wheel that doesn't

TC is the same?

what's DSC? Dynamic Stability Control?

an lsd is a mechanical device. tc, dsc and DBD (dynamic brakeforce distribution) are computer software and hardware systems that sense wheel spin and manage throttle and brakes to reduce the spin. either by applying the brake to a wheel, adding/reducing power to a wheel or a combination of the two.

**the Dr's simple and non-technical explaination**


LSD, is for when you want to DRIVE!

DSC, is for when you let your kids drive.
