    Haldex nightmare :-(

    I've tried them but unfortunately they have not had any dealings with the gen 2 haldexs. All I need is a garage I can take it 2 and they diagnose the problem. Don't think there's anyone out there tho

    Haldex nightmare :-(

    Yeah that will be the best just getting a caliper now and that will eliminate that. I wish I could just take it to a prprofessional and get them to diagnose it. Tempted to take it to awesome gti from what I have read on previous posts

    Haldex nightmare :-(

    Yeah tried pulling the fuse but didn't work. If your driving in a circle and you pull the handbrake up a notch the noise dissapears but if fuse is out then when handbrake is applied noise stays

    Haldex nightmare :-(

    Hi all i am having such a nightmare with my haldex problem. To cut a long story short i took my car ( a3 3.2 quattro ) to an "audi specialist" so they call themselves. I informed them that i had a tyre rubbing sound when pulling off and turning in circles. They charged me 170 as i asked them...
