    ok i have a 2012 SR5 4x4 v-6 auto.
    i had a 2011 base 4x4 I-4 manual.
    there seems to be a difference in auto lsd, track, or something different with dash lights.

    does anyone know the difference if any between the two, or is it just my imagination?:confused:

    Oh no... do we have a factory schematic for 2012 that shows this Christian?

    If there isn't a change for 2012, then TRAC in 2WD and TRAC in 4WD-HI are different (2WD has engine regulation, and 4WD-HI has no regulation).

    AUTO LSD is a 2WD ONLY feature to give you TRAC without engine regulation (like it is in 4WD-HI).

    The confusion comes in in using the name TRAC for two different types of limited slip, depending if you are in H2 or H4.

    AUTO LSD and TRAC in H4 are the same type of limited slip, but TRAC in H2 has engine regulation.

    ==================================================================================

    So, let's see a schematic for 2012, please!

    IF you are instructing him to how to turn off limited slip TRAC or AUTO LSD, you also need to make sure he is stopped (0 mph), then push the VSC button for 3-5 seconds (until light comes on) to have no traction control or stability control (under normal driving).
