[V8] front diff( EDL or just plain open?0

[quattro]

Just wondering if the reason the autmatic v8's have hmmm..........unbalnced traction front to rear, is beacause the front diff does not lock? Is it supossed to? I know ist not a torsen setup.......and it doest lock via knob or button in the car. So that leaves two possible answers....either its EDL and not working right.....or its just an open diff?Allan
