My speed sensor has been disabled somewhere along in its previous life (not 
the usual snip of the (wht/blu?) wire under the back seat.  I actually would 
like to find the break in signal as my cruise and trip computer both don't 
work because of it. IMO.  As far as driveability on low traction situations 
I like being able to have the diff locked at all speeds, especially in 
situations you describe.
I have found no downside yet.  Also I think is is more an accelerometer vs 
speedo, so it doesn't disengage when spinning wheel might indicat 20 mph, 
but more when the car is actually moving 20 MPH?
