Yes. The DSC is quite good. But In recent snowy weather, it was evident that it could clearly be better if it was able to more accurately transfer power to the wheel with grip (as opposed to reducing power).
One wheel on ice and one wheel on grippy pavement, the wheel on ice slips then DSC reduces engine power and/or applies brakes to that slipping wheel.
The problem is that the power reduction limits the torque transferred to the wheel with grip, so you move away from a stop rather slowly. Exactly the situation e(LSD) would help most...
The stock system is good, but there is room for improvement!
As we all know, improvement is a good thing!
