I understand it because I used to speak Italian when I was younger. lol

It's pretty easy to understand though based on the diagrams they show.
It's mostly visual.

I wish they had it in english.
I'll send a message to the guy that uploaded it.

I didn't know the X-Drive was truly better than the other systems until now (and the reasons behind it and how each works).

Check out these other videos:

Apparently, Audi is suffering hugly from the open differential.
It didn't used to be like this in the old models when you can manually lock the differential of your choice.
Now, BMW took over, and does the differential switching automatically.
