Faulty Haldex!? Please help..

[slogstorm]

Hello!
First of all, this is a great forum for Seat owners..
Now, my big problem is the haldex is not functional, I only spin with my front wheels, and it's pretty frustrating.. I ordered a new prepump(haldexpump?) wich is on it's way. I read on another forum that it was most likely the pump.. Any other suggestions of what it could be? I have a late 2000 (2001) registered Seat Leon 1.8 20VT 4 - 6-speed manual gearbox..

Is there any DIY on how to change te pump? I don't have any VAGCOM gear and haven't got any codes yet..

No weird sounds or anything, the rear just wont pull..

PLEASE HELP!!

Have you tried to ask on Audi Forums at all bud?

Thanks for the replies my fellow Seat brothers! No, but i have searched for hours on audi/vw forums. I know it is similar to tt/s3/r32, their built on the same platform, but i havent found anything useful but to check wires and clutch/brakes switches beneath the pedals.. i ran an OBD2 scan with the android app "torque" and it did not come up with any fault codes.. The winter is coming fast and i am in haz need of the 4x4 to be working properly..

the A3 Quattro with the 180 1.8 T has the identical system as well, I came close to buying one before I bought the Leon, but got cold feet lest the Haldex system should go wrong

you'll need a proper VAGCOM to communicate with the Haldex system, the Torque app only speaks to the engine ECU for OBDII codes.

Best option is to get a proper diagnostic computer on it to see what fault is there.

As mentioned they don't do the 4wd version in the UK, might be better off asking here - http://www.audi-sport.net/vb/17-a3-s3-forum-8l-chassis/

Hey again guys! I visited my brother who's a mecanic on a hobby basis, we took off the old pump and measured the ohm on it, zero signal and most likely faulty pump/electronics.. Well, enough of that. The problem was solved in less than an hour. We changed the pump with the new one i ordered and went to my local VAG dealership and got new oil and filter. It was quite easy to change, so if anyone needs help, just pm me and i will write up a "how to/what to do" for you. After the oil/filter/pump change my Leon spun like crazy on all 4 anyways, thanks for the advises!! :-D
