[s-cars] Of EDL and switches...

So it's only Volvo AWD and MBZ 4Matic that are
nearly totally biased front and rear, respectively,
until slippage occurs? Oh and VAG's Haldex iteration
is the same way.

Taka,

The viscous center diff of my 93 Subaru Legacy with manual trans was
advertised as a 50/50 F/R torque split in stable conditions.  In
comparison, the auto-trans version of these cars used a electronically
controlled clutch coupling which had a 90/10 F/R torque bias in stable
conditions.
