Subaru Impreza / Subaru Impreza Owners Manual / Starting and operating / Limited slip differential (LSD) (STI)

• Never start the engine while a tire on one side is jacked up, as the vehicle may move.

• Never start the engine while a tire on one side is jacked up, as the vehicle may move.

• If one tire is spinning in mud, avoid continued spinning at high speed as this could adversely affect the LSD.
