That was really interesting, I have a '08 Saab 9.3 Aero XWD, it's currently operating correctly, but it's been a bit of a black-box until now - that was a great explanation.
Are you using the original clutch pack or the racing diffs one when you build it back up? Mines got the racing diffs pack in but my front wheels judder under any hard acceleration or turning at low speed....not sure why, I imagine that coating from the pack that creates the sludge in the oil wont be doing it any good....likely put the original one back in. Top video👍
Hi interesting video, just acquired one of these interesting VXR's myself, Im not getting any noise or errors, yet but think its only a matter of time, it does feel kind of funky when under power at the rear The front end of Haldex looks fairly straight forward to strip and rebuild, where do you get the parts? Would be really interested to see a more detailed strip down of the LSD itself would like to see what fails in them, and why, usefull video, cheers
Thanks, I've only seen the clutch kit for sale through racing diffs and service kits through most car parts sales places. I will be doing another video in the short future when I rebuild the spare haldex 👍
Hello mate. I've got the racing diffs upgrade for the haldex. I haven't got round to installing them yet. Have you had any problems with the upgraded clutch discs?
I did have with the origional kit yes, they lasted 800miles. They replaced with a new set though. I'm saving the new set for when I rebuild the spare haldex
Hello, Thanks for the Nice video’s on your channel. Im watching them always. Im a owner of a VXR/OPC with an Haldex. Having problems at the moment. When driving long distance the haldex is causing problems. Recently I services the haldex with new oil/filter and pump. Because of feeling the haldex in slow corners. After service it was gone. But now it came back. Any ideas What it might be?
Hi. Im a new subscriber. How often do the haldex units need servicing milage depending? & is it true that the haldex unit was upgraded on the facelift insignia vxr around 13 plate or 14 onwards. Im looking at a 16plate vxr right now. The anxiety of what could go wrong is a slight turn off but i really would love one. Just looking for reassurance i guess mate
Good video! I just bough one Insignia with an Haldex unit and seems that at some point, a few years ago someone changed the pump and maybe serviced the unit. Now I drowe the car only a few meters and I can hear a strange noise from the rear right side. If you have a clue, can you please let me know? Many thanks
Hi mate. How you removed the steering pump pulley. Did you removed it special tool ( puller ) or just only turn the center bolt? I need change my pump bearing and seal in my garage. I watched already lot of pulley removal videos. But my pulley different from the other pulleys. No edge for seat the special tools. Anyone can help me experienced for pulley removal?
Where could i find them clutches? Im from the usa but looking to buy spare parts for our saab. Its currently not working. No cel has came up. The issue is unknown currently
