Could you elaborate on the problems with your 530i?

Default Thanks. This sounds as if the 80% LSD was 80% locked even with little or no drive torque. --->

I.e., the disks were excessively preloaded (crowded) without ramp action. The LSDs I played with were almost completely free without drive torque (ramp action).

Different cars is my only guess there, from the ones I've driven, no noise/chatter(ymmv)...
