You had me worried with this when I was considering purchasing a 328i.

However the owners manual for 3 series (starting in 2008) and 135 both claim to have an E-Diff in them. Or, is there a difference between the two?

Both 3 series (2008 and later) and 1 series owners’s manuals state: “in the same way as with a differential interlock, even if DSC is deactivated, brake actions are still performed on the rear axle to enhance drive output if the drive wheels experience a significant loss of traction.”

Maybe this feature was already added to the 3 series?
