A clutch type diff is what BMW used to use when this was a factory option. It is also what M cars used until they went to an electronic variable lock system.

IIRC current M cars dont even use clutches anymore. There is a variable servo operated mechanism that can go from full open to full closed or anywhere inbetween in .001 sec.
