I would doubt it very much, but to check, try this.

Jack the car up at the back (use a piece of wood to protect the gearbox and jack her up with a trolley jack under the gearbox) and make sure she's safe (axle stands etc) and both wheels are off the ground

put her in gear and try turning one wheel - if the other wheel turns in the same direction you have LSD. If the other wheel turns in the other direction you don't.

Think that should work...

good luck

LSD's on 924na are extremely rare (I'm not entirely sure they exist at all?!). I think Vaughan swapped in a 951 LSD into his 924na Audi 5spd. The LSD is probably going to run around $800 or so, and then lots more for labor. Quaife might make one for the 924na Audi box too. If the 951 diff fits in the 924na box, then any 944 Quaife diff should work.

Either way, it's an expensive proposition. Are you tracking the car?

Could always try a phantom grip. http://www.phantomgrip.com/products.htm one of our board members has it installed and last I checked had good feedback on it so far. Perhaps he can comment (Simon?)
