Do I have VLSD??? 5AT 03 Coupe (vin # attached)

J N K C V 5 4 E 1 3 M 2 0 9 1 4 6

I called the 2 infiniti dealerships and one said I did, one said I didn't. And get this, asked how many miles and they tried to book me in for a transmission fluid flush. Umm, I just did it last month buddy.


Stealership. Good for nuthin but warranty work.

if you have 18 inch wheel, it means u have VLSD. 18-inch wheel comes with the package that includes VLSD. This applies to 03 and 04 Coupe automatics if I remember correctly.

Its short for viscous limited slip differential, and it helps with traction by limiting the amount of wheelspin is possible. The VLSD doesn't kick in until wheelspin already starts though, and then transfers power to the wheel with traction

Excellent, I guess I have it! (sport pkg)
Is there a way to keep traction control off, without having to press the button?

U can't turn off traction off unless u turn off vehicle dynamic control off first and abuse hard enough to mess up the traction system temporarily. Rrestarting your car will bring back the traction control and vsc. Correct me if I'm wrong...

Check out this link.

Scroll down to the very bottom, and you will see Performance Tire & Wheel Package includes LSD. It's just another thing to brag about

No you need an lsd to drift, viscous is the weakest type but it can work.

Just to confirm, all 5AT G35s do NOT have a limited-silp differential unless they have the Performance Tire and Wheel Package? 6MT comes with LSP even without the package?
