About this part

Product Details

If you're looking to get the most out of your 2003-2006 Mercedes-Benz E55 AMG's powerful 5.5L supercharged V8, especially when pushing it hard on the track or during spirited driving, a high-performance limited-slip differential (LSD) like the OS Giken TCD SuperLock is a game-changer. This unit is specifically designed to replace your factory open differential, allowing both rear wheels to receive power more effectively, even during hard cornering or when one wheel loses traction. This means improved acceleration out of turns and more predictable handling when you're driving the car to its limits.

The OS Giken SuperLock is a unique type of clutch-type LSD that uses a special cam system. Unlike some other LSDs that can feel grabby or unpredictable in daily driving, the SuperLock is engineered to offer smooth engagement during normal operation. However, when you get on the throttle, its internal mechanism locks the differential more aggressively, sending power to the wheel with more grip. This design provides a notable improvement in traction without sacrificing the car's comfortable daily driving characteristics. The unit is built with durable materials to withstand the demands of performance driving, ensuring it can handle the torque from your E55 AMG's engine.

This OS Giken SuperLock LSD is a direct fit for your 2003-2006 E55 AMG, as well as the CLS55 AMG (2006) and CLK63 AMG (2007-2008). Installation will involve removing the rear differential and replacing the factory unit with this performance-oriented LSD. It's a job that requires specialized tools and knowledge, so we recommend having it installed by a qualified mechanic. Once installed, you'll notice a significant difference in how your car puts power down, especially when exiting corners.
