Limited Slip Differential

The Wavetrac Differential is engineered with a patent-pending design to automatically enhance grip in challenging low-traction scenarios, setting it apart from other torque-biasing differentials. Its internal gear tooth forms are precisely optimized for superior strength and to ensure better oil film retention compared to conventional designs. This results in a gear package that is not only smaller and lighter but also significantly more durable. Crafted with meticulous attention to detail, the side gear and axle interface has been reinforced, incorporating as much material thickness as possible into this critical area, which is especially vital when dealing with high power outputs. The internal gears are constructed from high-strength 9310 alloy steel, while the diff bodies are machined from case-hardened steel billet. This specific Wavetrac Differential (10.309.176WK) is designed for AWD 6-speed manual 02Q transmissions (front application) in vehicles such as the VW MK5 R32, VW MK6/MK7 Golf R, Audi A3 (8P) AWD, and Audi TT (8J) AWD. It also notably fits 2WD models that are equipped with a factory Performance Pack VAQ Electronic Differential.
