Method and control device for operating a motor vehicle

A method for operating a motor vehicle having a plurality of driven axles each with a locking differential, the method comprising:

• determining, while the motor vehicle is driving, that the motor vehicle is driving around a curve;
• determining that the associated locking differential is engaged on a driven axle of the plurality of driven axles;
• determining that the locking differential is disengaged on another driven axle of the plurality of driven axles;
• reducing the axle load on the driven axle with the engaged locking differential;
• and
• increasing the axle load while on the other driven axle with the disengaged locking differential.

A method for operating a motor vehicle having a plurality of driven axles, wherein at least one of the driven axles has a locking differential and at least one other of the driven axles is made without a locking differential, the method comprising:

• determining, while the motor vehicle is driving, that the motor vehicle is driving around a curve, and
• determining that the locking differential concerned is engaged on a driven axle;
• reducing an axle load at the at least one of the driven axles with the engaged locking differential;
• and
• increasing an axle load at the at least one other of the driven axles without the locking differential.
