| Haldex oil change Mk I Octavia 4x4 ... does anyone know: 1) How much the special tool costs and whether the public can buy it? 2) How difficult a job it is to change the filter & oil? 3) Whether £190 is a reasonable quote from a main dealer? Thanks,

| Re: Haldex oil change 2 more links: Find HALDEX OIL FILTER TOOL T1066 VW R32 AUDI S3 - AUDI TT on eBay within, Volkswagen, Car Parts, Cars, Parts Vehicles (end time 01-Dec-07 23:17:32 GMT) http://www.kisolutionz.com/ttforum/haldexoilchange.pdf You would probably save yourself the best part of £100 by doing it yourself, you will need a hand pump gun for the oil. |

| Re: Haldex oil change £190 is daylight robbery. They must be billing you for the special spanner as well as the oil and filter! Jabbasport's website shows a charge £75 for a Haldex oil and filter change.
