hi all, I started to get various warnings, such as no hdc, and warnings about transmission fault, I read the fault codes and they related to the diferential control module, I assumed at this point its a haldex problem either the pump or the ecu.

Anyhow the fault cleared, now the above errors are back but with reduced engine performance, a dtc for the fuel pump has appeared, B100-A-15 in the BCM ecu

could this fault be linked to my faulty haldex or do I also need a new fuel pump, also is it the pump in the tank or the high pressure pump.

Luckily I dont do many miles a so i am going to remove the haldex next week and get the pump tested.

In my case, the "transmission fault - traction reduced" message was solely related to the Haldex and would appear on and off. The fix was a pump within the Haldex unit, if I remember correctly.

I don't know about the other messages, but seeing as the issue appears to have started with the Haldex, I would definitely start with that for a fix; if you're not having and sputtering of the engine, the fuel pump is most likely fine; otherwise, I would think you'd notice.

I must admit I find that the problems that this haldex system causes (or has) is very disappointing for such a vehicle but, as the owner of an MGF as well which also has problems (HGF) I suppose we just have to live with them  If it ain't ***ked don't fix it

hi, it is disappointing but tell me a modern car that doesnt have its problems, my friend has an xc90, (my 2010) which is a very lovely car, he has had his haldex serviced as a precaution, but then his auto gearbox has failed, the bill is around £2000,

hi, i had a 62 reg v70 and that didnt have the ford psa engine, but the earlier 2.0d did have a ford psa engine.

mine was the d5 engine, i dont know about the gearboxes, i guess the same or similar box will be fitted by a variety of manufacturers.

just like a variety of manufacturers fit the haldex units, vw, volvo , audi

is the freelander 2.2 a ford engine

I understand that the 2.2 is a PSA engine built under licence by Ford 3 x FL1 2 manual + 1 auto
