Dodge Magnum Differential

Turning this into our context, the Dodge Magnum is equipped with a differential which is fundamental in determining the amount of power from the engine to the drive wheels and also the fact the wheels turn at different speed in an attempt at turning, and other related activities. This functionality is very important to ensure that water is not locked with the tires as this causes rubbing on the tires thus wearing out the later. These have included open as well as limited slip differentials or the LSD as applied in the Dodge Magnum. In the open differential, the left and right wheels rotate at different speeds, but it becomes a problem on slippery road and limited traction, on the other hand, LSD works on torque distribution by locking the wheel with more traction which becomes problematic when starting from the slippery roads. Further, future generations of the Dodge Magnum may feature active differentials especially in dealing with torque control. Thus, each differential type has some pros and cons as far as the car's performance and the feeling one gets while controlling it is concerned. Maintenance of the Dodge Magnum's differential is essential since lack of it causes severe problems to the vehicle, and this is why its maintenance is important.
