What a video! What an explanation 👌👌. Explained with such clarity.
Japanese Engineering...Toyota!

It's a subtle issue, but it's the differentials that exist on each exle that is why, as cars become more computerized, the more important matching tread depth during tire replacement is more important. A lot of information is gathered on the rotation speed of the tire to determine things like ABS and LSD. For newer cars that sell with AWD (likely by a hybrid drivetrain or electric drivetrain)

Man I'm a huge fan of LSD. And I guess Limited slip differential are interesting as well.

[jonathangomez]

Nice, I always wondered what they did !

[ruchikahewage]

Very much useful for the studies in automotive engineering. Thanks a lot

READ MY LIPS: TUNDRA NEEDS A LOCKING DIFF AND I'M ALSO WILLING TO PAY FOR IT. Your turn, Toyota.

We need Lisa Vito from My Cousin Vinny to explain how all this works.

I'm watching your second video on how a car works, and I think I'm starting to understand what the problem is. It seems like you commissioned 3D animation from people who aren't really familiar with cars... In this video, the 3D model of the differential is done terribly! You can forgive the straight-cut gears, but the model is completely non-functional! With this design and arrangement of gears, both wheels are rigidly connected and will rotate constantly and at the same rate 0:41. It's both funny and embarrassing for such a 3D model on such a serious channel...

What do you mean inside and outside wheels? That makes no sense

[rickjames]

limit yo mama.
Every car should at least have limited slip diffs. Having open difs on an awd car especialy is really sad.

An abomination, showing spur instead of bevel gears. “Whatever, ” you say? Well people come here to learn stuff from people who know stuff. You have the obligation and the platform to inform!
