Hi, I've tried to switch the ignition on pressing the start button without pressing the clutch pedal but...nothing happens. No noises, no buzzes...nothing. Leaving the key in the dash have the same effect than push the start button w/o clutch pedal. .is it normal? |

Do you mean the airbag light, glow plugs light, oil, all the red and-or Yellow lights that blinks on when the engine is cranking and turns off once the engine is running?

hi changed mine yesterday,the car is a 2007 with 140.000 km. the oil was very dark and the filter closing plate was dirty of some kind of deposit. I was able to extract appox 300 ml of old oil from the haldex unit |

Other companies using the same unti may well use different seals, oil & filters? thats the only real explination if they are indeed the same units. its not uncommon to have oil filled sealed units, i suppost if their calculations came back and say it will last 200,000 miles+ on the same oil and filter then it wouldnt be added to the service schedule?

Just to elaborate, the filters get blocked up with horrible gunk, this can then cause blockages or poor fluid flow which inturn can cause damage to the unit. Next one I change I will take photo of the state of it and post it up. www.bellengineering.co.uk |

Am I right that getting into the later Haldex to do a oil and filter service is mission impossible though.

To only change fluid you can suck out about 2/3rds of it with a syringe through the fill hole. Obvious problem is you haven't changed filter and not all the fluid.

That looks like its 40k overdue!! The oil seems to have emulsified. As my recently bought vehicle has no history of autobox service and oilchange I will look to get that and the haldex done together. 2009 Freelander 2 TD4 HSE Auto - Stornoway Grey - Hers (His, really)
