first up its an lsd
i dont know if its a problem or not. when i do a sharp u turn, i can really hear the tires gripping the road surface. and when i do a slow turn say into a carpark spot from stopped, the tires squeak like im ripping a burnout or a donut. hmmm beats me. but when i do a sharp turn it sounds like a diff locker is on, by the way the tires try and grip.

the LSD in my cars pretty tight, it'll only do as you say if its given a bit while turning.
slow turns you won't even notice.

I have LSD in the EF XR, does the same thing.
Didn't think it was a bad thing though?

had this thread been up but a month ago i would have probably been oh, them LSD folk all bragging again bout their wicked differentials, now i can contribute hazza. Mine does it to its normal im assuming cos its limited slip it can slip only a little, sharp corners with a bit of stick and roundabouts fast in dry cause mine to make same sort of noises from tyres
