You should consider changing out the rear differential fluid on your car.

On my old STI, which had a torsen LSD in the rear similar to the Twins, I once got it high-sided on some snow/ice. I spent a good 10 minutes trying to get it un-stuck and eventually triggered a rear differential temperature light to come on. At that point, the manual suggested replacing the rear differential fluid so I did. Apparently the fluid breaks down quickly when the temperature rises above a certain point. No problems after that.
