ASC+T shift power to other rear wheel?
Mine seems very stable in ice and snow. as I have ASC+T traction control, It seems to shift power to the other non slipping wheel to ensure traction. is that correct as I cannot see what is happening while driving?
Just curious? TIA

First in reverse (auto) heard engine rev and wheel spinning. Opened door and find driver side wheel not spinning at all no matter how far push gas pedal, only passenger rear wheel spinning.
Is this because of the differential (just read online before posting this)?
Is this a problem in my Beemer I have to fix ($$)?
Tried sticking tree branch under spinning wheel but won't catch, what other way to get it going, shovel?
Any help and insight is greatly needed.
