They weren't standard on Senators. 

[Mr Gav]

the carlton/senny LSD required a special diff oil / additive
if un-serviced or left un-used for long periods the diff looses its LSD capability IIRC

Same as the LSD on the Omega, some of the Ex Plod Omegas that the went into Private hands got screwed up this way, even if they went into a Vx Dealer for Servicing. 

worthy of a mention .just in case someone decides to retro-fit an lsd that's been sitting in storage since 1990 

Unless it was correctly stored, either full of diff oil or drained. I think the problem was when the clutch plates were only partially covered by the diff oil.

They weren't standard on Senators. 

No but many had them unlike the Omega

I had a feeling at least the 24v Senators had them. Pretty sure the one we had did, but that was a long time ago...

[Migv6 le Frog Fan]

Neither of my 24v Senators had one.

Mine were only the 12 valve cars-but still went well enough-if lsd weren't standard this could be one reason I never noticed them having one

NON LSD =l
LSD         = l l
the black marks you leave on the tarmac after heinz acceleration

heinz acceleration = "giving it beans " 

carltons and sennys (1986- 1994) saw the launch of ACT (advance chassis technology)
 marketed with "puts the skids under it's rivals"

video clicky

This is the passive rear wheel steer with the use of a void type inner bush on the rear wishbones and was carried on to the Omega.
