Locking or non-locking differential?
Aie, I'm confused again
Are our trannies' differentials of locking or non-locking type? For some reason I'm running into both while searching for a replacement tranny... what's the difference exactly? I figured we were non-locking right?

See that's what got me going.. I figured any sort of limited slip differential VLSD/HLSD/Quaife etc would mean I'm locking.. yet for some reason all the shops up here advertise them as non locking!

Since you're in Canada and you bought your SE in Canada... you have a locking tranny (VLSD).

Makes sense; I wouldn't think they would spend the money to actually develop two different trannies for the same model in the same market region (well, aside from the VLSD.. I guess someone thought we got more snow up here hehe).

I agree with 2 posts up...to be precise, they are not full locking diffs. Even my truck has a limited slip as opposed to full locker rear end.
