WARNING: This page does not describe the selected car, but rather 15 other vehicles, including the 2014 Subaru Tribeca, 2014 Subaru Outback, 2014 Subaru Legacy, 2013 Subaru Tribeca, and 2013 Subaru Outback. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
During normal driving, connecting force of multi-plate clutch (LSD) is determined from the calculation results of the following controls:
- Torque sensitive control
Calculates connecting force of LSD according to torque input to the transfer.
- Control for turning
Calculates reduction in connecting force of LSD based on the steering angle and vehicle speed.
This function improves turning performance within the specific vehicle speed range.
- Control for slip
When the front or rear tires begin to slip, calculates the increase in connecting force of LSD according to the amount and time of the slip.
This function maintains road contact, improving drivability.
