LSD in 997.1

Hello Everyone. I was wondering in stock car 997.1tt, does it have front, rear and center LSD? I noticed a strange thing, when the car is standing still in D and I steer the front wheels all the way to the left or right and try to drive off slowly, I can hear the wheels slip, like the LSD cars does when it locks the LSD. is it seems right? does this car has LSD and if anyone experienced something like those clicking sound and slipping tires?

And one more thing, when i drive the car across the bumps slowly, i can hear click like the spring of the front strut or around there clicks, it happens maybe once a day or so, but if anyone familiar with this issue, is it normal? what can it be?

Do you have aftermarket springs installed? I've heard this happens, something like a popping sound when the wheel is turned left or right, when springs are installed.

I get the same thing especially after washing my car or driving in wet weather. You are feeling the tires slip in the front when turning all the way to one side or the other. I have LSD and I believe that involves the rear wheels only. This only happens to the front wheels. The clicking noise is another issue. I would bring that up with your mechanic (by the way my car is stock).

Hello, no my car is stock, it was inspected at 2 service station and 1 Porsche station and all said it is all good. so it is strange i bet it is connected to the spring getting in place or hitting the top hat. well it clicks only once a day so it is all good i guess.

So the stock 997.1tt has only rear LSD? no front? How about center is it viscous or disc? how the front gets connected to the rear? I bet it is disks but i am not sure
