Abstract
A differential is provided between a left and a right wheel of a motor vehicle for distributing an output torque of a transmission to the left and right wheels. A fluid operated multiple-disk clutch is provided for restricting the differential operation of the differential. A speed difference between the left and right wheels is calculated. The fluid operated multiple-disk clutch is operated in accordance with the speed difference, in such a manner that the restricting magnitude increases with an increase of the speed difference.
