haldex question

[redlinehigh]

i am due my first haldex oil change, does this require a bespoke spanner like the tt did?
if so where is the best place to buy from please/ thanks

No idea, but you should definitely read this thread if you're planning to change the oil anyway:

Your 8V car doesn’t have a filter to replace.
Therefore you should only need the Allen keys for drain and refill plugs.
Most remove the haldex pump once the oils drained to clean the filter/gauze on the pump.

Just done this and as above no special tools really.
