Haldex Oil Change & Servicing

Q: Can I service the Haldex system myself?

While it is possible to perform basic maintenance, we recommend professional servicing to ensure all components are properly cleaned, primed, and reinstalled with the correct software.

Q: How long does a Haldex service take?

A typical Haldex service takes about 1 to 2 hours, depending on the vehicle model and condition of the system.

The Haldex clutch pack relies on clean oil and a clear strainer to send drive to the rear axle when you need it. Neglect it and you risk pump failure, not just reduced performance. A Haldex service at High Volt Garage is £120.

Understanding Halde

What is Haldex?

The Heart of Your All-Wheel Drive System

The Haldex AWD system is fitted to many Volkswagen Audi Group vehicles. It gives you the security of AWD when you need it, while maintaining the fuel efficiency of front-wheel drive during normal conditions.

It works using a wet multi-plate clutch and a pump that distributes power between the front and rear wheels.

How often Should you Service your Haldex?

We recommend Haldex servicing every 20,000 miles or 2 years, whichever comes first. However, service intervals can vary depending on your driving style:

What Our Service Actually Includes

On Gen5 systems without a filter, we remove the pump and clean the gauze by hand. Most dealerships do not do this as standard, it is just a fluid swap for them.
