What is Haldex?

Understanding Haldex: The Heart of Your All-Wheel Drive System

The Haldex system is an advanced all-wheel-drive (AWD) technology found in many modern vehicles, particularly those from the Volkswagen Audi Group (VAG), including brands like Volkswagen, Audi, SEAT, and Škoda. It offers the benefits of AWD when needed, while maintaining the fuel efficiency of a front-wheel-drive vehicle during regular driving conditions.

Why is Haldex Servicing Important?

Regular servicing of the Haldex system is essential to ensure its optimal performance and longevity. The Haldex system uses a wet multi-plate clutch setup, which requires specific oil to promote friction between the clutch plates. Over time, friction particles can accumulate in the oil, potentially leading to blockages and pump failure if not addressed.
