It may sound like a silly question and it probably is, but something is bugging me about a change that I'm observing in my throttle response/ Michelin PSS and overall car dynamics lately. Let's start with the reminder I have the M-Performance LSD installed, and am not an expert on mechanical LSDs, so please take it into account answering...
Up to some time ago, I enjoyed the sheer pleasure of my M235i acceleration - from time to time, I'd "remind" how it can feel by flooring it with DTC on; even on dry asphalt my rear wheels would lose grip momentarily (and that at a cruising speed of ca. 60-70 km/h, without switching to Sport mode or moving the stick left to Manual/Sport - just after pressing the DCT button shortly) . What a nice feeling of driving a true performqnce car!
HHowever lately, in the above decribed circumstances I'm no longer able to break the rears' grip - without some additional help from a sharp steering wheeel movement or alike... When driving straight, no more ability of getting out of longitudinal grip with the as pedal alone!
What do you think might have changed? Could it be that the LSD is preventing the rear axle from loosing grip, or is a higher temperature (of tires and road) at play?

Strange subjective feeling of the car becoming less poweful...
