I have a 3.0/5MT with the rear end currently disassembled for full overhaul. Bushings, ball joints, powdercoat, etc.

I noticed last year in the snow that the DSC will cut in and depower/selectively brake the car when you're slipping. It's a feature I really don't like about the X5 but I'm new to AWD cars. Have had a ton of E36s, including an S54 318ti.

Is there an advantage to adding an LSD clutch pack to the rear of the E53 X5? Every E36 I've owned has had a rear LSD, but I'm not sure how it affects the handling of the car with the front open diff.
