A hybrid module for a motor vehicle drive train includes an electric machine, a rotor bearing carrier, a first bearing, a second bearing, and an intermediate shaft. The electric machine has a rotor unit with a rotor. The roller bearing carrier is for rotatably supporting the rotor unit. The intermediate shaft is for transmitting a torque between an internal combustion engine and a transmission or an output. The internal combustion engine and, the transmission or the output, can be connected to the hybrid module. The intermediate shaft is rotatably supported by the first bearing and the second bearing. The first bearing or the second bearing is supported on the rotor bearing carrier, supported or on the rotor unit, or is arranged to be supported on an output shaft of the internal combustion engine.

A limited slip differential (LSD) is mounted on a driven axle of a vehicle to drive left and right wheels. To control the LSD, a speed of the vehicle is determined. A value of a preload for application to the LSD is also determined. The value of the preload is based on a predicted engine torque and on the speed of the vehicle. A preload is applied to the LSD when the value of the preload is greater than zero.
