      Is there any solution for Gen 6 (S3 2022)?

  • @kylemandt527

    I just installed this on my 8P Audi A3. It is fun to drive the car in FWD mode to feel torque steer. The track mode seems to hold the Haldex pump on longer than stock as it goes back to 100/0 slower. Driving around with the Haldex locked defaults to 65/35. The car feels like a true AWD car and going through a turn is quite different. I could be imagining it but when I parked the car I seemed to be smelling a mild clutch like burning smell coming from the rear of the car. I will use it sparingly as it must wear out the Haldex faster. I don't want to replace such an expensive part.
    When you put the car into FWD mode and you are driving 30+ MPH and you give it the beans, your car will accelerate faster then if power was pushed to the rear.
    I have a stage 2 A3 with the stock K03. I did two 0-60s with launch control active and I did 0-60 in 5.24 seconds. I turned on the Haldex Controller and set it to do 50/50 between 0-12 MPH and 50/50 13-23 MPH and 80/20 between 24-36 MPH and then 100/0 from 37 onward. I did 0-60 in 4.96 seconds. .25 seconds faster. That would maybe remove .3 to .5 seconds off your quarter mile time.
    This is a fun upgrade. Auto cross, track events or rare launches are probably when I will use it. Driving around in FWD may help with MGP. That would take some detailed testing and long drives at HWY speeds.

      2 year update. My A3 now has a K04, full suspension upgrades, chassis bracing, front and rear LSDs and United Motorsport Haldex tune. Using all that with this controller allows me to have good performance at track days. I only run a few laps at at time and I watch the Haldex fluid temps in the app on my phone. I have a lot of fun with a full time AWD car on the track. I rarely use this in my off track driving as to keep the wear and tear down and I know I probably do enough wear and tear on track days.
      I know a guy who had a MY 2019 RS3 and he ran this controller full time, all the time and he said he never had issues for a year. I am not sure if I believe him but he is a good guy and a solid mechanic.

      With the proper high performance tires like Nitto NT01's your car is going to have plenty of grip and will hook up just fine from a dig or from a roll. Plus if you don't have a fully built motor, built transmission, and a bigger turbo then this really isn't going to make much of a difference if you aren't putting down 500+ wheel horsepower. Tires will make a world of difference and won't deplete the life of your all wheel drive/4 motion system. This haldex controller is a hard pass for me and a waste of money.

    I've got it and it is pretty sweet. You can tell a huge difference - whenever fooling around can select 50/50 lock then put it right back into passthrough mode for regular driving. It has some cool schedules you configure off of speed, boost, etc. that you can set up for your intended purpose. I think it's awesome!! The developer is very friendly and responsive too, as I'd reached out with questions.

    3.39 From what I read in forums, the pump is always on anyway whether you engage the AWD or not. To me, that highly does make sense because otherwise it would be way too slow for the system to wait for the pump to do its work, in order to activate the Haldex clutch.

    Once the rear seat bottom is out, the plastic LATCH covers can be easily removed. Without them in place, the seat bottom slides into position MUCH more easily. From there, the LATCH covers are easy to install. I'm not sure if it's faster or slower, but there's less struggling with getting the cushion aligned under the LATCH covers if they're not present while installing the seat cushion. Give it a try next time you remove the seat. Keep up the good work.

    I installed this on my RS3 first time today and it took me half an hour for the whole process (easier than I thought). I made 2 straight cuts (20 mm long, 7 mm apart) on the side of the rubber grommet with scissors, so the harness can go through. After the grommet was put back, I sealed the hole with high quality and waterproof electrical duct tape. I placed the controller at the back in the trunk on the existing foam. I used a Velcro (hook and loop fastener) to hold the controller securely in place. The Velcro method will allow me to temporarily remove the controller from the car as I wish. Now, the fun part is to play with the settings and to set them correctly is the hardest part.

      Big difference when you set it up correctly for the sweet spot, I feel like I have an extra 50HP. The car launches so much harder and faster when you set 80:20 or 70:30 torque split between 0 and 40km/h, then 50:50 torque split from there on. This is to get the heavier front end going first, then quickly push hard with 50:50. You can view all these happening on the phone.

      Haldex consumes about 23-30% of your total output. Running FWD at all times will benefit your gas mileage but will not be the same as the regular FWD cars due to all the extra weight. You're probably better off just unplugging the haldex cable if you really want FWD only (it's free).

      * using them for a transplant (e.g. the 4motion parts) where you don't want to replace/recode ECUs refusing to work together (e.g. difference in ECU generations etc.).
      * Cars built for racing purposes could require a different 4WD strategy which would serve no useful purpose on a daily driver like engineers designed it to be driven.

    I'd be curious to know if this could be used in a 2016 Tiguan, which I understand uses the Haldex system, and also if it has been tried to enhance performance for offroading. Thanks!

  • @tototitui
    @tototitui 4 ปีที่แล้ว +4

    So if I remember correctly, the haldex puts itself in 52/48 when you turn off your ESC... so if you want to do your 1/4 mile you can just do that and punch it again at 70 km/h or so and you will save yourself $1k. On the track you do want as much HP to the back as possible to avoid the terrible understeering the car has so again, you leave it at 52/48 (what you really want is 20/80 but by design your haldex cannot do that). Overall this is just a front wheel drive and it behaves as such. Source: I own an S3.

    Isn't this like Haldex Blue? From what I remember, those put extra wear on the transmission and you need to service it sooner.

    • @rolandm9750
      @rolandm9750 4 ปีที่แล้ว

      "Haldex Blue" you're referring to is basically a Haldex controller with a different map/tune on it. The colour is sort of irrelevant as it's just a cover. But the Haldex controllers you see like those (the selectable-mode and the competition ones) those are actually made by Haldex themselves, they're just sold by various tuner-type companies (HPA, Neuspeed, etc.). So there you're actually changing it to a controller designed by the company that made the coupling to begin with.
      Never really heard about "extra wear on the transmission" from using one, but anything is possible. This doesn't change anything about the transmission, just the way the centre coupling apportions power to the rear-end.
      These Van Der Veer boxes at DAP though, they are piggybacks it looks like, rather than replacement controllers. They are basically causing the stock Haldex unit w/stock controller to behave differently. It's a different way of getting to the same thing I guess. Cost is a little cheaper here (not a whole lot) but this seems more configurable, and configurable from a phone app at that. However thing that bothers me is none of the percentages make sense, so it's tough to know if this thing is really doing what you want it to? Like stuff like 50F/40R--where did the other 10% of engine power go? lol.

      Pump runs all the time when vehicle is on. However it is not always "engaged". Running at 100% will burn the pump out much quicker. Pumps usually last around 60-80 thousand kms depending on how lucky you are.

      As far as I know 50/50 on haldex is like open diff maximum power on both axles but you are not able to give more to the rear bc then you would need a real middiff between te front and rear axle.

    @1:34 "Haldex can't engage when you're on the brakes..." Wait what? So on road courses, rallies, and hill climbs where it's VERY common to use the brakes in conjunction with the throttle to control the balance/disposition of the car Haldex does not allow drive to the rear wheels? That's a true shame, didn't know that.

    • @waifuracer6516
      @waifuracer6516 4 ปีที่แล้ว

      This is one of the reasons why people prefer torsen, because torsen is a mechanical AWD, unlike haldex, so it wont disengage when you brake, and has more predictible handling. Downside is that its always active, so you gonna have your fuel economy cut, while haldex disengages when not needed giving you FWD economy.
