Default LSD

Hi
how can i identify a LSD in a 968?
The code is not on the option sticker, but it may have been fitted later.

In my experience if the rear end is up on jack stands and both wheels turn relatively freely (no emergency brake or caliper sticking on either wheel, not in gear etc...)

Turn one wheel forward and watch the other wheel, if the other wheel turns forward also then LSD. If the other wheel turns opposite direction, Non LSD

If anything is sticking, brakes etc... then it can keep this free turning approach from working
