    HALDEX!!! What is this?

    Thanks guys, i was really worried because on mine it was wet and there was definitely fluid in there. @daz-20vt. It's not mine, just found a picture on the net. When the haldex is plugged in its causing the TC to go crazy. So thought maybe it was leaking through there.
