Hi anybody looked into Retro fit on LSD R56 MCS may 07 should have ticked the box £100 ,but did not do it, looking at cost of parts and work to fit it, if it would be woth it, any feed back would be good thanks Derek

It will be a scary amount of money as the gear box will have to come out.

Japper · Oct 12th, 2007, 07:58 AM

Derek, as above.............if possible at all.

Regarding whether it's any good........................for £100 it's about the best option you can spec on a MCS. Had it on both the R53 and now my R56 Works and it's amazingling good.

Thanks again guys ops one major spec mistake then never mind still a great car

This pretty much answers my question else where on forum about price of getting the LSD on a basic Cooper. Oh, well, I'm sure its good enough even without it.

My dealer told me it was a waste of money unless I was going to race my car on a track
