Bah I just found out they are called Backing Plates, but still can't find any for sale...only in the US, so suspect main dealers only, which means rip off coming my way...

Hi, seems one of my rear dust shields, has broken and now the car sounds like a loaded up shopping trolley. Anyone know where I can get a set, and that they are called Dust Shields, I can only find this on the US websites, not the UK ones......?

Ben@:AMD has come back stating they quoted for the whole rear diff, but a haldex on its own is a little over a grand + VAT. So its 1200 (New Haldex) vs 700 (rear diff second hand). Rest of the Car is sound so lets see if I get an XMAS bonus.

Good point - Mail sent this morning Looking at options and getting it fixed and sold and replaced with a Focus ST is the viable option...did I just swear on an Audi forum!!!

They didn't state the details, I asked if thats a new rear diff and they said "yep just about"

I don't have £2900 laying around, and they won't put in secondhand parts when it comes to the rear diff

damn I just got a quote from them to fit a new rear diff, agree they are ***** and I'm going to stay away from them now. This thread is about the 3rd search result on google, HAHA

Erm no I won't just seen threads on this site saying they are a nightmare to deal with. I'll shop around

Managed to find a secondhand rear diff fitted for £690 with 90days warrenty and new Haldex oil? Place called Nirro Ltd. Might go with this option

^ Server WTF service even Lday = Lady Long day

any ideas what its worth 2006 880000 miles, full server history 1/2 leather. one small scratch thanks to a lday and a shopping trolley. Haldex broke....I'm thinking 7200fixed - 2900 = not a lot. Seems the only option is to keep it and run it in to the ground. Going to try and unplug the...

Nope - but have heard thats an option, Ben was the guy who stated cost etc, so I'll contact him. think his on here?

Not the case the only good news it is took them 30mins to tell me what I thought which means £36 instead of Audi £160 The following error codes: For Haldex test. 2 faults found 01703 - Clutch Pressure system 002 - Lower limit Exceeded - Intermittent 01155 - Clutch 003 - Mechanical...

If you go for a Quattro read up on Haldex and make sure its had the oil changed,

Thanks to S3Decked I have the following read out errors, so its still booked in with AMD tomorrow morning. Note: I will also be treating it to a clean after being a little shown up by S3Decked gleaming ride! -------------------------------------------------------------------------------...

the noise, its more than clunking, but its the noise I need to work on solving. the disengage when pressing the brake is one of the haldex tests on the Audi manual to perform. As is the handbrake one. Changing the whole diff is what a number of people say will fix it.....so like you it will...

OH and BTW S3 Alex - I have done no work today due to your build thread..!!

All booked in with AMD this Wedensday AM, fingers crossed its not what I think it is, as it coming up to 90'000 so looking at cost to repair vs value it may not be worth it, unless its a complete rear diff change and I can get a part for under £600. I'll keep you posted. Thanks for all your help.

Hi Decked - Yep seen that post, I'm told that the Haldex issue shouldn't give up any errors, but I'm keen to give it a go if thats ok? I'm also keen to see your beast, as if I can fix the issue I have on mine then an S3 is looking like the way forward :-) I'll PM you on here
