    Haldex Oil Change

    Has anyone had this done? I saw this and wondered what other owners had found as my car is coming up for a 3rd service. According to what I have read it is not VW's practise to clean the filter when the oil is changed unless you pay to have it done and specifically ask for it.

    And this Haldex four wheel drive oil and filter changes. The forgotten oil chan - PSC Autocentre

    Good thread and links, thanks.

    It does seem to be an item in the VAG (and others) cars that isn’t fully understood. The joys of outsourcing in manufacturing.

    I’d think that 20000-30000 oil/filter change/clean/replace would be best practice.

    It looks like vw do a 45/60km oil change- but no filter clean/replace.
