BMW X5 Differential

The Differential applies immense power in BMW X5 vehicles by allowing the drive wheels to rotate at different velocities that are cherished during cornering as well as on the various surfaces. Usually the X5 have a bevel gearset differential, this rotates the wheels at different speed in the course of turning to avoid wear out of tires and putting pressure on the drivetrain. In different years of the BMW X5 model, various types of the differentials were used: open and limited-slip differentials (LSD). Open differential supplies the same amount of torque to both the wheels: this can cause some problems when the ground is either icy or very much wet. Instead, the LSD enables the torque to be split unevenly in favor of the wheel with better grip or traction and this is good for performance. Both of them have their demerits but broadly the LSD gives enhanced control and grip especially during difficult terrain or road conditions.
